The highly polymorphic storm worm has now been very quickly re-engineered. Messages now attempt to invite folks into various social network clubs found on the Internet 
This new attack is widespread, as all most 2 million infected users are participating in a HUGE Botnet that spams out countless copies. This new threat is circulating extensively. The 1st sample message is tempting, as I really like cats, but I think I'll decline this invitation
