Computer/Network Guru Help

Ok all you brilliant, talented, geeks out there....maybe you can help me figure this one out.
I just got an e-mail that had a virus in it (w32netsky) but the attachement was deleted by Norton's before it made it to my e-mail.
This is what it said (too bizzare and totally bogus):
-------------------------------------------------------

three days, if you are still wishing to use it, please, resign your

The message said it had a text file attached but in reality it was a zip file (with a virus in it).
This was the message header:

Any Ideas? :confused:

Hey RK,
It looks to me that it was a "phishing" attempt (you can tell from the bad grammar and the fact that they're trying to lure you into "resigning up", which is how they would have gotten your email account, password, etc.)
If your system is showing up clean when you scan it for viruses now, I wouldn't worry about it.
Have a good day!

The virus is gone, so just delete the e-mail. The message means nothing.
Contact ntwotrance and forward him the e-mail. He will have it traced and if it is a phony (yes it is) he will report this activity to the isp and take care of it.

It does sound like a "phishing" attempt. Do not respond to the e-mail, go to the link, or open the attachment. Delete it.
w32netsky is a very nasty virus, but it looks like your anti virus software caught it.
You can double check, with a free, up to date scan over the Internet at:
Trend Anti-Virus Free Scan-"Housecall" (http://housecall.trendmicro.com/housecall/start_corp.asp)
Good luck. :D
