Subject: New WoW Password Virus found 19th June 06
   http://www.symantec.com/avcenter/venc/data/infostealer.wowcraft.d.html

This is out in the wild looking to steal your Warcraft login information.
Once infected, this virus will attempt to log all keystrokes sent between your computer and the login servers (us.logon.worldofwarcraft.com or eu.logon.worldofwarcraft.com). Any data it collects - which would include your username and password - will then be sent off to a remote attacker. Symantec is currently reporting that the virus hasn't spread far yet, but it's time-consuming and difficult to recover a lost account, whereas it's fairly quick and painless to make sure your anti-virus definitions are up to date.
