Default WARNING

The same warning is contained on the web page you posted from. The message
was not from MS technical support--it was a message generated by a virus

Default WARNING

I get about 200 of them per week to my NTL e-mail
address, and I don't know where the heck the idiots that
do this got my address from, because I don't give my real
e-mail address out.

Default WARNING

The virus sends the emails and gets your address from address books of
infected machines that do have your email address.
