Yup this confirms it: http://www.securityfocus.com/news/6603

That is what I got.... It sent an e-mail from admin@customcooledpc.com (which doesn't exist, it's my god damn site!) to the address I use on these forums. How it found the address I use on these forums is a little mystery. I suspect some member has my addy in their list and they got the virus etc....

Norton didn't find jack so I was dumb enough to open it. Anyway I reloaded WinBlows XP on that comp and all is better than before. Needed reloading anyway.

They hid the virus in an HTML file which I didn't even think about it being a virus. Sure enough though.
