I have just received the following administrative alert from Sophos AV:

Sophos has received many reports of sightings of the new
email-aware W32/MyDoom-A worm, and is warning system
administrators around the world to ensure their systems
are protected.

A detailed analysis of W32/MyDoom-A is available at:

Be careful with this one, its spreading like wildfire. I've already received 6 emails with this attached.

Words of advice, if you get an email with an attachment from someone you don’t know delete it. Even if you know the sender you may want to email them back and ask if they meant to send any attachments.
