This is running rampant online now. I received a warning from my ISP that an email was being circulated addressed from my ISP and the warning from my ISP read: Virus Alert -"DO NOT OPEN" Now a bit of common sense will head off any problems of this sort...the attachment is supposedly a password protected zip file and the password appears in the text body!! [Think about that one for a minute.] You just never, ever, never open attachments that can contain malicious code even if the message comes from someone you consider a reliable source. Whatever great goodies the attachment contains cannot be worth the risk.
