There is a HTML virus going around in Hotmail that I want to warn all of you about. It will come across as from E-card and Subject will say..I love you from an Admirer
It will then come up with the following...Now the way they get you is in Option 1, they have the link re-directed to a site idownline.com/members...blah..blah and it will load a HTML/java script virus called js.petch.dropper. Very new and nothing on it really yet..So please all of you update your virus scanners or get on on your system ok..
The e-mail states:
