New Virus with Fake Microsoft Address...

This new virus appears to generate many (random?) subjects, so it's getting
difficult to narrow down.

Has anyone filters for Spamassassin that will correctly identify this
virus?  I'd like to score this one high so they are rejected (via
spamass-milter)... it's been a huge problem all day.

The fake messages have a preamble like this:

 >>>>>>>>>
MS User

this is the latest version of security update, the "September 2003,
Cumulative Patch" update which eliminates all known security
vulnerabilities affecting MS Internet Explorer, MS Outlook and MS Outlook
Express as well as three newly discovered vulnerabilities. Install now to
continue keeping your computer secure from these vulnerabilities. This
update includes the functionality of all previously released patches.

Thanks,
Forrest
