If you receive an E-mail stating that UPS have tried to deliver a parcel and they give you a tracking No. then DON'T REPLY AS IT'S A VIRUS.

It's phishing Spam, not a Virus, good advice all the same.

Nope it's really a trojan. It's been around for a few months now. There is one from FedEx as well.

UPS Spam: Trojan Courier of Choice

Quote:
TSPY_ZBOT.PF downloads an encrypted configuration file from a remote site. The said file contains banking-related URLs which the spyware monitors in Internet browser address bars. When a user accesses any of the listed URLs, the spyware logs keystrokes to capture data entered in login boxes. Gathered data is then saved in a file, then sent to a remote site through HTTP post. The URLs listed in the downloaded configuration file may change at any time.
