Thanks for sharing this warning to all of us here. This is really dangerous and all concerned should really be warned in advance. I think that everybody here must share any information that has something to do with destrustive virus -- especially new ones that are still coming. Again, thanks a lot. Whenever, I also come accross of something like this, rest assured I will also share it here.

well i am happy that you use linux and am sure that you will also keep in mind that widows is most used and it has lots of users so that it why its not secure once linux has the same amount of users and advanced then it will also be no longer secure and i have heared that linux is very difficult to understand.

This is great information to know as I had not heard about this new virus. I know there are new ones that come out everyday just about but had not heard about this new one but will keep it in mind when checking emails. I will have to look at CNN and see if they have more information about it. I made sure all the computers at my work are updated and the antivirus programs are set.

Thanks for sharing the information in advance with the Mylot users although i didn't get any such message or mail till now but this kind of mail spread too fast. Nowadays its very hard to inspect all the mails properly like if we go for some online business signup for 2 or 3 then 1 company may give our id to third party which gives us dozens of mails in a day. Opps that spam mails. Well you said at last you can help us if we ask, so what kind of help you can offer us.

Thank you for sharing this information. I do from time to time got an email saying "a virtual card for u". And from trusted people, I'll open it but lately I doubt to open any emails from unknown since all the news about virus this and virus that. I certainly don't wanna loose any data on my computer, I'll be really mad if that's happen.
Thanks !!!
