Was it a virus or a trojan? Our firewall is supposed to splat viral attachments in emails, this one got through.

[mailed also to orignal infected person]
I just received a message which appeared to be a response to something I posted on this list that contained an unsolicted attachment:
> Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="PsPGame.exe"
If you get a copy of this message, this means that you have been sent a virus (Plage2000). Do not run the attachment. If you did, I would
HIGHLY recommend scanning your system with an up-to-date virus scanner.
