Warning!
If you happen to get an email with the subject line: "An American Airsofter In Toyko" be careful NOT to open the attachment called: "AnAmericanAirsofterInTokyo.doc.lnk"
The attachment contains the W32/SirCam@MM Virus
Not sure if this was just an attempt by someone to infect my computer or if it's spreading all over the place so if anyone else gets the same email please let me know.
Grr!

Said it was from a "Bill H." , exact email address I don't remember as I've already deleted the sucker. I do know that it came from Canada since the senders email address had a .ca extension.
Going to check with other airsoft forums to see if anyone has reported anything simular.
Edit: Dammit, where did that message I was replying to go?

Hado it isn't just you I saw this somewhere else where they were talking about it. Its a worm virus so it isn't someone out to get you.

Because hado started that thread too, it said almost the exact, if not the exact same thing he said here.

Yep, copied the same thing over to Airsoft Players to reach a wider audience.
By the looks of things, it was only aimed at me since no one else is reporting simular emails.
Grr! I pity tha fool!

I got one too, but different virus, and something about a useful airsoft tool... in the subject.
My Norton anti-virus caught it as Outlook tried to "preview" it
