Virus Alert - W32.Beagle.AV@mm

There is a new worm on the block named W32.Beagle, it is a variant of it's family, but better written and has been raised to a Level 3 alert. Along with mass mailing it's self, it will kill your AV software and open a Backdoor Port into your computer to carry away any personal information you may keep in your computer. I recommend you update manually your Anti-Virus software and download the fixtool to have on hand just in case this worm does slither into your computer. I maintain an Email Alert List to let people know about any new bugs that come out at or above a Level 3. If you would like to join this Alert List please send a blank email to me at fx1@bulleri.net?subject=AddMe2AlertList .
