Hi Shandra,
The email is a hoax, it actually contains a virus and you should immediately
delete any you receive. If you've already opened and installed one, then you
are infected and have a chore in front of you. See:
https://www.europe.f-secure.com/v-descs/swen.shtml
http://us.mcafee.com/virusInfo/default.asp?id=helpCenter&hcName=swen
http://www.viruslist.com/eng/viruslist.html?id=88029
Clue: Microsoft does not distribute updates or patches via e-mail. They only
make updates available for download from the update site.

Microsoft NEVER sends Email with attachments.
http://www.microsoft.com/technet/treeview/default.asp?url=/technet/security/news/patch_hoax.asp
WHAT IS IT?
The Microsoft Product Support Services Security Team is issuing this alert
to advise customers to be on the alert for this virus as it spreads in the
wild. Customers are advised to review the information and take the
appropriate action for their environments.
IMPACT OF ATTACK: Mass Mailing, disabling processes related to security
software such as antivirus and firewall software

No, these are viruses/Trojans/worms.
MS will not email you or send you patches by email.

Use *none* of them. Microsoft never sends patches by E-mail and
any such patch that comes that way is not from Microsoft.

Then you go to a site like
for instructions on how to remove the virus you installed.

I would recommend block @microsoft.com e-mail right now until it settle.
This will keep delivery to your email, and it will make your email account
excess storage. 155KB each email

No, you're not supposed to install any of them, although the
writer of that particular virus is counting on your being stupid
enough to do so.
What you received is either a very common malicious hoax or the
output of a computer infected by one of several wide-spread, mass
emailing worms. The most widely-known are:
W32.Swen.A_mm
W32.Dumaru_mm
W32.Gibe_mm
Microsoft never has, does not currently, and never will email
unsolicited security patches. At the most, if, and only if, you
subscribe to their security notification newsletter, they will send
you an email informing you that a new patch is available for
downloading.
Microsoft Policies on Software Distribution
http://www.microsoft.com/technet/treeview/?url=/technet/security/policy/swdist.asp
Information on Bogus Microsoft Security Bulletin Emails
http://www.microsoft.com/technet/treeview/default.asp?url=/technet/security/news/patch_hoax.asp
How to Tell If a Microsoft Security-Related Message Is Genuine
http://www.microsoft.com/security/antivirus/authenticate_mail.asp
Any and all legitimate patches and updates are readily available
at http://windowsupdate.microsoft.com/. (Notice that this is the true
URL, rather than the bogus one that may have been contained in the
email you received.) Any messages that point to any other source(s) or
claim to have the patch attached are bogus.
You're receiving these emails because your email address is in
the address book of someone infected with a worm, and/or because you
posted your real email address somewhere on-line, either in a forum
accessible to the public and spambots, such as Usenet, or on an
untrustworthy web site that subsequently sold your address as part of
a mailing list. One thing you can do is notify _everyone_ with whom
you've ever corresponded via email that one or more of them may be
infected with a mass emailing worm, and should take the appropriate
steps.
There's probably no way of blocking all of the bogus messages, but
you can greatly reduce the number you get by creating a rule, based
upon the most commonly used subject lines, to delete the emails from
the server without ever downloading them.

Diane,
Microsoft does not sent patches/updates or any other software via E-mail. If
you have subscribed for E-mail notification of security related updates, you
would receive notification from them of such availability but you would have
to go to them to get the update. What you may be receiving is
Worms/Bugs/Viruses! Do not open them or the attachments. Keep your
Anti-Virus Software updated and be sure you are scanning inbound E-mail.
Rely on the regular Windows update site for updates to XP.

Hi Claire,
Not Bruce, but click tools/message rules/mail to start. Click the "new"
button. Create a rule where if the message contains the text "this is the
latest version of security update", then "mark it as read"/delete it/stop
processing more rules. This shoud take care of the majority of them. Just
remember to empty the deleted items folder occasionally.

Then you run right to the store and buy anti-virus
software. You've just been infected with a virus. If
you're lucky the machine will be able to be cleaned
without having to format the drive, as I just did to
several machines with the last virus. USE ANTIVIRUS
SOFTWARE-ALWAYS!!!!!!!!!

Set your mail client to download only headers, turn the
preview pane off, use your brain to select and delete the
obviously bad stuff before you download the virus laden
emails. You can recognize them by the words and the size.
