E-mail from Microsoft

I received an e-mail today from Microsoft. The subject is
"Newest Internet Security Upgrade" It has an attachment that
Outlook Express removed as it was/is an executable called
"installation 232.exe" The e-mail certainly looks authentic, so
I checked The Microsoft site and lo and behold there is a
section on how to tell if an e-mail is legitimate. There is an
actual example of a hoax and shocking enough it looks just like
the email I received....
So beware there seems to be something new out there...
Pay attention to any mail from eBay as well. There's a few versions
of spoofs going around.
One even takes you to a genuine looking secure eBay page, and then
asks you to put information into a popup page. Bad gimshe.
