If you have YAHOO email

[LadyHawk]

This morning, every time I try to log in to Yahoo email I'm getting a virus. My system is catching it, but wanted to warn everyone.

w32.feebs
is what my Symnatec logged.

W32.Feebs is a detection for a family of mass-mailing worm that also spreads through file-sharing networks and lowers security settings on the compromised computer.
The worm may also send confidential information to a remote attacker via FTP.

The worm arrives as an email attachment with an .HTA extension.

good luck

Nope, she's right. Here's an excerpt from Fox News.

LAS VEGAS — Yahoo Inc. (YHOO), the world's largest provider of e-mail services, said on Monday that a software virus aimed at Yahoo Mail users had infected "a very small fraction" of its base of more than 200 million accounts.

The e-mail virus, or worm, has been dubbed Yamanner and landed in Yahoo mailboxes bearing the headline "New Graphic Site."

Once opened, the message infects the computer and spreads to other users listed in Yahoo users' e-mail address books, security experts said.
