In another escalation of the arms war, the latest variant of
password-encrypted archive virus now distributes itself in an encrypted
rar file, and the password is an attached bitmap to eliminate the
possibility of using the password in the body of the message to open the
archive in antivirus programs.

At his rate, I give e-mail another year of usefulness.  So much for the
usefulness of attachments too.  Thanks a lot spammers and virus
writers.  The good news is we'll have to replace SMTP with a better,
more robust, and more secure system.
