A new mass-mailing virus hit the Internet Monday, and unlike many others of its ilk, carries with it a payload that could do quite a bit of damage to vulnerable networks. Called Bugbear, the virus installs a Trojan on infected machines that is capable of logging users' keystrokes, which could include passwords and other sensitive information.

the safest way to stay virus free, is to remove outlook (either express or not), and remove wscript.exe (or if you have NTFS remove permissions to execute).
