Anyone else get it? Mailing list perhaps??? Working from home today so I don't have my normal resources I do at work to research these things. Is it safe to open it?

There is a new email virus circulating that, if launched, emails itself to everyone in your address book. Please delete and be wary of any email with the subject: "Re: Your password!"

It usually doesn't have an attachment (the one's I've gotten). I've opened one before and there was nothing in it, no text, nothing. \'98 Mystique Sport LS - Black
