Here we go again. Someone in my family emailed me to ask about this one, wondering if it was a hoax or not...It's not.

W32.Goner.A@mm (http://securityresponse.symantec.com/avcenter/venc/data/w32.goner.a@mm.html) is the Symantec write up, here's the McAffee (http://www.mcafee.com/anti-virus/viruses/goner/default.asp?cid=2636) page.

Fortunately I haven't received this one yet myself, which is surprising, I'm on so many spammers' lists I usually find out about the new ones by getting them... http://www.PCGuide.com/ubb/eek.gif I guess it's just a matter of time...
