There's a new MS Word macro virus called "ShareFun," discovered recently
by McAfee, and is described as being transmitted particularly by MS Mail.
The article begins:

   Internet bulletin boards are filled with dire warnings about email
   that will infect your computer with viruses that will then destroy
   data and send nasty email out to everyone in your email
   program.

   Those are hoaxes. This one isn't.
