    Something different about netsky.p vs all the other variants: I'm
    seeing this one spread evenly across all my mail gateways. Earlier
    variants only hit my first MX record, this one is either ignoring MX
    weights or getting them backwards. Maybe that's why this one's making
    the rounds a bit more than other recent variants.

    We're living in interesting times when even viruses have hotfixes...

    I thought the "MC-Afee" bit was a nice touch, might just convince a fair
    few people!

    regards,
