sent in hopes of luring people to unzip a file to find out who invited them has been hitting unsuspecting victims. The message carries a mass-mailing worm. It looks around on infected computers and sends emails to addresses it finds. The message appears as if it came from a Twitter account, but unlike a legitimate Twitter message, there is no invitation URL in the body of the email. Instead, the user sees an attachment that appears as a .zip file containing an invitation card. When the zip file is opened, the virus spreads. ---- The header on the email invitation reads From: invitations@twitter.com, Subject: Your friend invited you to twitter! ----- The infected machines transmit a signal to a Web site, providing the opportunity for the bad guys to download misleading applications known as rogueware.
