Re: [Fwd: List you have a greeting card from .]

Strictly speaking, the Friends Greetings message is not a virus.
It is an example of "social engineering"; it *asks* you to
download the real virus, which then obtains your permission
(buried in a license agreement) to send mail to all your Outlook
contacts.  Yet another reason not to use Outlook, IMHO.  See:

for the whole story, with screenshots.

Again, the message *itself* is harmless.  Just don't try to
download the card... ;-)
