GRIEVING Michael Jackson fans have been warned to be alert for a computer virus.
A Worm is using Jackson's death as bait, computer security company Symantec warns.
The worm sends out spam emails with the (misspelled) subject
"Rememebring Michael Jackson"
and an attachment, "Michael songs and pictures.zip".
When opened, the worm automatically downloads on to the user's machine, then spreads through its email. It's one of many scams taking advantage of the tragedy.
