It is a virus and DID NOT COME FROM MALFADOR!
It will contain text like this:

Thanks for the warning. I haven't been on-line on my home system for awhile. I'll make sure when I check my e-mail to watch for it.

I do not recall the name of the virus, I deleted the email and sent Malfador a note.
Some people do not know about these kind of mimic emails and will open an attachment thinking it to be lagit.
I hope no one here has fallen for any of these. Remember I will never send you a file unless you know it is coming. I will seldom open a file from anyone unless I know it is coming and have scanned it first.

It does look like MM have let their anti spam and anti virus software down again. To all Users dont forget to keep up to date email and virus protection.

The Virus most likely didn't come from MM because the virus spoofs the senders address to keep the source of the infected computer a secret.
