I got this too, and it included To: addresses of posters from this list. Smelled fishy to me so I killed it immediately, but it slipped through our considerable virus protection as well, and coincidentally came not long after a mention of a security hole recently identified by Microsoft. It looked very legitimate, and someone with less heightened awareness to such things might fall for it.
