W32.Sober.X@mm

Potentially dangerous email virus coming!

W32.Sober.X@mm is a mass-mailing worm that uses its own SMTP engine to spread and lowers security settings. It sends itself as an email attachment to addresses gathered from the compromised computer. The email may be in either English or German.

Note: Symantec products that support the Worm Blocking functionality automatically detect this threat as it attempts to spread.
