All the information I know about it is this:

If you get an email with password in the title such as Your Password it is most likely a very nasty virus that is currently doing the rounds.

Thats all I know, it was broadcast over the tannoy at work today.

I think the virus you are talking about is called Antkletz or something like that.  It appeared a little while ago, from what i hear it sends stuff from your computer to other networks, it can also send itself to everyone in your e-mail address book.

I'm not sure if this is the one you mean, but i think there is a free program specially designed to destroy it on this months PC Essentials magazine.

This does sound like a variation of the Klez or Yaha viruses that are currently on the go. These both have hundreds of different E-Mail headings and subjects to try and fool people into running the infected attachments.

It's always a good idea to run a virus checker on a regular basis to make sure you haven't been infected.
