virus? hoax?






Hello,
I got a strange e-mail yesterday and three this morning. Forwarded all
to our help desk who asked what kind of mailing lists I subscribed to.
Just this, the RPG list,  and ClubTechiSeries. Fortunately, all e-mail
with attachments having specific extensions are blocked. One attachment
was 'deletedo.txt', I think.
The subjects are 'last net critical patch', 'Internet Security Patch',
'Returned Message: User unknown', and 'Current Network Upgrade'. The
sender addresses all have MS Corp or MicroSoft in it in some form.
Anyone else getting these? 
Thanks.
