Well you never now when its a brand new virus.... You could check if your virusdefinitions of your scanner are up-to-date and if so do a full scan of your disk to make sure. If you wanna be sure, you should do a scheduled weekly scan of your full disk(s). There is always a riscy timeframe between the distribution, discovery and the cure for a virus your computer can get infected. It not the first time a virus gets by the scanner (had this more than once with Norton).

I think it's probably 2. I've got router firewall, Zone Alarm, and Norton with email scan on. Would seem to be difficult to infect one of the local machines here. Also, info at floralsoft.com is not in any of the machines. I think it only gets picked up like the other email addresses on the web by the bots. I hope.
