New Virus - wmf exploit
This one is bad. It can get you by you just viewing a windows media file.

Make sure that your antivirus is up to date.

Thanks for the headsup. On the same lines, do any of you know any virus protection programs that don't suck up a ridiculous amount of resources?

If I have to use a Windows machine, I typically use AVG.

what are you using that uses a lot of resources? mcafee and norton are small footprint av programs and pretty ubiquitous.... If your machine is bogging because of the AV, well, it's time for a new machine
