Virus -- NOT from us

There's a new virus going around, claiming to be from LiveJournal admins. Do NOT open it. We will never send you emails with programs, zip files, screensavers, etc.

The email reads:
Hello there,

I would like to inform you about important information regarding your
email address. This email address will be expiring.
Please read attachment for details.

Best regards, Administrator

You've been warned.

In the future we'll be publishing SPF records so people can't forge our address, but currently not enough ISPs on the Internet support SPF, so everybody just has to use common sense.
