    With the holiday season approaching, there is a new virus in the wild that first appeared in July. It appears to be a “missed delivery” notification from FedEx or United Parcel Service. The notice asks you to print it so that you can claim your package. Starting the print process launches the virus. Obviously, do not print the notice. Delete the message and empty your Deleted Items folder.

    For a brief description read http://www.snopes.com/computer/virus/ups.asp

    This is a PC specific virus, so don’t bother passing this on to your Mac friends.
