A blog entry was posted at Sophos about two emails that the author of the post received that contain a link to a rapidshare file.

The links point to malware according to Romana Ward of Sophos. She points out that while the first URL was already taken down, the other one is still active as of July 20.

Also, she notes that the email was sent by the malware, not through spam since the To: address list of the emails includes the sender’s friends and relatives.
