E-mail virus

So, it looks like there's a new virus going around the internet. The most surprising thing is that the RunningInk.com team is on top of it. Wait a minute, I'm the team. Have I been replaced?

Email text of virus found below. It's actually set-up very well. Except for the infected attachment.

Dear user of e-mail server "Runningink.com",

Our main mailing server will be temporary unavaible for next two days,
to continue receiving mail in these days you have to configure our free
auto-forwarding service.

Please, read the attach for further details.

Best wishes,
