What is I-Worm/DUMARU.Y?

[Jan Il]

Hi all -

I have just gotten a warning that AVG detected a virus in a message. The
dialog box says what was found in the attachment was I-Worm/DUMARU.Y virus.
The OE Rules had sent it to the Delete folder, and when I opened the Delete
folder I got the warning message immediately. The warning dialog box says;
Hidden extension.exe, etc.; "Infected file will be removed to the Virus
Vault (what/where ever that is). The infected attachment will be overwritten
with information about AVG intervention."

I have not seen this one before. Is this an old or new one? Is it one also
making the rounds now to watch for?

Best regards,
Jan
