Thanks for the heads up. :)

May be worth mentioning...along with the phishing e-mails concerning SilkRoad, there have been phishing e-mails claiming PayPal needs you to confirm your account due to suspicious activity. I got them both, within twelves hours of eachother and on an e-mail account I don't use for SilkRoad or PayPal. =\ So if you use PayPal and see this, ye be warned. :o

The "invitation virus" is a hoax. This virus doesn't exist.

http://www.snopes.com/computer/virus/invitation.asp

The virus is actually people sending emails and making posts warning about the non-existent virus.
