Howdy,

I don't normally report PC virus problems, but we are receiving
a LOT of email with the SirCam virus.  It is one of the usual
email attachments which spread when someone opens the attachment
by sending email to addresses in Outlook address book.  It
also spreads to all computers on the local LAN.  The virus
usually comes from someone you know (whose computer's have
been infected) and has different subjects but the body text
is always:
--------------------------------------
Hi! How are you?
 
I send you this file in order to have your advice
 
See you later. Thanks
--------------------------------------

If you get this DO NOT open the attachments.
For more info see:

I expect many clones of this virus so beware of all attachments
even when from someone you know.
