This seems to be the virus I had last removed from our network before 
finally getting NAV installed (just started new job... had to make some 
modifications).  We had similar emails blambing another addressbook 
member of sending viri.

Now the latest of our satelite offices in the South Americas have had 
some old virus infected by an [HTML/MimeExploit.IFRAME].  I think this 
was from a 1999 IE exploit.  Maybe the virus is new, I don't know but it 
pretty much shut their systems down good.  I have been getting more last 
week from export at lufer.com.br... I assume that is Brazil?

These are not infecting us, it's just a pain being the sys admin to get 
tons of  warnings from the mail server.
