Virus alert: Subject: ALERT. Attachment: Secure_Details.zip

As part of my review of Microsoft Security Essentials yesterday one malware attachment was not picked up as malware by any of the software packages I was reviewing. That is AVG (free), Microsoft Security Essentials or CA Internet Security Suite Plus 2009 all could not identify the attachment as being malware.

The email had the subject "ALERT" and the attachment Secure_Details.zip.

This attachment has now been confirmed as malware.

You should delete any of these emails that you receive. Do not extract the contents of the zip file.
