'Storm Worm' Spreads Rapidly Worldwide
Symantec rates new Trojan horse the worst malware outbreak since 2005.

Malicious software that was sent out in millions of spam messages over the weekend has now infected about 300,000 computers, making it the worst malware outbreak since 2005, Symantec said Monday.

The so-called Storm Worm e-mail messages first started appearing last Wednesday, advertising attached news reports on topics like "230 Dead as storm batters Europe," or "U.S. Secretary of Sate Condoleeza Rice has kicked German Chancellor."
The attachments have names such as "Full Story.exe" or "Full Video.exe." Once they are launched, these files install malicious software that then waits to receive further instructions over the Internet.

I have no clue how anyone would be able to send me anything, but the window looked legit (definately not a pop-up) and then it disappeared. It asked me if I wanted to accept the file transfer of echo.m4a or something like that. It's never happened before and I've had my mac for a long time.
