Comment:
I just received an e-mail from a friend saying that she's been infected with a virus called 'worm opankis.as' and that her anti-virus program (PC-Cillin 2003) is unable to quaranteen it or remove it. I tried doing a few searches for this specific virus to determine where it's located but cannot find anything. Does anyone know anything about this virus/worm?
