melissa virus

this virus is in the form of an email it says

Here is that document you asked for ... don't show anyone else ;-)

the user opens up the doc. and instantly gets the virus. Upon execution, the virus first lowers the macro security settings to permit all macros to run when documents are opened in the future. Therefore, the user will not be notified when the virus is executed in the future.
