The virus is a variant of Bagle, according to the report i read it does not appear to replicate when it infects a machine, it is being pumped out as spam from a botnet.

Importance: High

Note there seems to be a virus running around that is spoofing userid's yet again and mailing to the OASIS list and other places. I am fairly certain my machine is not infected but I see that a mail has been posted to the list using a spoofed version of my ID among others.

DO NOT OPEN the attachment foto.zip.  - It is not from me.

OASIS WebMaster , by CC, can you please remove all e-mails from the WSS list (and other lists I guess) that have the infected attachment in them.

Cheers
Kelvin
