This article, A New Risk to Computers Worldwide, in today's New York Times is worth reading. It describes the threat thusly. «The program, W32/KLEZ.H, is a «blended threat,» combining elements of a virus, which infects machines, and a worm, which transports itself from machine to machine. It also tries to disable some antivirus programs.»
Fortunately, my ISP, Virtual Interactive Center, provides a virus check before I can even download my mail. It caught this particular virus the other night, sent to me from a friend, Ed Beaver, with whom I rarely exchange mail.
