Its spam.

Top culprit number 9: E-mail

Virus worms spread themselves by forwarding a copy of the virus to all the contacts in your address book. Those contacts that are unaware of these worms will most likely open the e-mail and the file attached to it. But when you open a strange infected e-mail from an unknown sender, then you are guilty of double negligence. For the virus to be activated you need to open the e-mail and in most cases you need to deliberately open the file attachment too. By using a little common sense you will know that strange e-mails from unknown senders are dangerous, especially when they have executable attachments with file names ending with the “exe”, “com”, “bat” or “scr” extensions. Even dangerous e-mails from known, trustworthy contacts can easily be identified if the contents of the e-mail seems strange and out of character. By being careful and responsible when opening your e-mails, you will not only prevent your own computer from getting infected, but you will also prevent the worm from spreading any further.

Interesting, BleepingComputer shows it as safe but here it is on MalwareNET.

That's why Steven Burn (MysteryFCM) is a great asset to MBAM.

mm...wonder when any member of staff at bleepingcomputer last looked at that entry; a bit concerning given that that site is one listed as offering training in malware recognition/removal.

I suppose it depends how a particular set of researchers classify it; it's probably sitting on the fence between useless/damaging software and an outright rogue. I wouldn't trust Trek Blue as far as I could throw it.
