A virus is circulating with an email subject line: UPS (or) Fed Ex Delivery Failure. You get an email from UPS (or) Fed Ex Service along with a package number. It will say that they were unable to deliver a package sent to you on such-and-such a date. It then asks you to print out the invoice copy attached. DON'T TRY TO PRINT THIS. IT LAUNCHES THE VIRUS!

If you receive such a message and suspect you have a problem with a delivery visit the website for the service (UPS or Fed Ex) directly or the website of the business that sent your package to verify the status.
