Question AOL Greetings Virus

I got a message that said:

This AIM user has sent you a Greetings Card, to open it visit: http://greetings.aol.com/index.pd?so...stmas_card.COM
This senders personal note: Merry Christmas!

In the real message the hyperlink actually takes you to a different site that downloads the worm on your computer, i edited it from this post

THIS IS A WORM! http://isc.sans.org/diary.php?storyid=917
I thought it looked suspicious, so I looked it up.

So beware!

Thumbs up

Mucho Thanks!!!

I just have a habit of deleting anything that I dont know who sent it!


Also be aware of emails from AOL, Ebay, and Paypal. Seems to be a lot of these lately wanting info from You.

Contacted AOL on one and said not from them.

Be careful everyone!
