It is interesting to note that Microsoft has a fix, but refuses to
release
it until after the trigger date.

incorrect, sort of.

There really isn't a fix, as this isn't a vulnerability.

This virus requires the user to open the file to get infected.

There really isn't a fix for stupidity.

Anyone running up to date antivirus software shouldn't have a problem.

I never could understand how people could *NOT* understand that there's no
such thing as a free lunch. All those email offers, and prize
notifications, and things that look too good to be true - *ARE NOT TRUE*.
*DON'T* open up any file that is sent to you via email, even if it's from
someone you know - check with them first. Set your email to read text only
messages and disable all html and embedded graphics. And just use plain
common sense! You're right, there is no virus software that can compensate
for stupidity!
