I got an e-mail from geckokidinteractive@hotmail.com with the file Keyword.scr attached. This file is infected with the Virus W32.Klez.E@mm

if you received the same e-mail, DO NOT OPEN THIS SO CALLED SCREENSAVER

delete the e-mail and check your outbox for sent items to people you do not remember sending

I think it is smart in general not to open any attached .src, .pif, .exe, .com files, especially if they come with a suspicious looking message.

Have you checked your system for a virus, as it is quite feasible, if you are infected with a virus, to send infected emails to other people without your knowledge.
