    Here is a file that I found on one of the sites linked to in the very first post. It is more or less a test file to see if you are vulnerable. When viewed it should open up the calculator and then shut down Explorer. Then explorer should open right up. That is all it will do. I have tried it on my computer.

    Fear not, Firefox wouldn't even open it.
    EDIT: As a matter of fact, it'd only download some 2KB of it. Which does not even have a proper JPEG header.

    Here's the test, from PCdoctor-guide.com
    http://sipr.net/test.wmf

    Explain what, there's nothing to explain. It's the same link Cosmic posted on the first page, it's just really interesting that they decided to release the patch with the monthly updates rather than the faster possible considering the number of people getting infected.

    Just look at the scam mail, one imitating M$ Brasil.

    No, it's meant to do that. Though you should apply the patch as you apparently didn't patch it right. Or wait until Jan. 10th, when M$ release their patch.

    I downloaded it last night, I did that "Calc Test", and it opened, then I got to sleep (Turning off, of course =P) And now the Calc doesn't show up, so, if the Calc don't pop up everything is alright?

    If the calc didn't open and rundll32 AND/OR iexplore didn't crash then, yes, you're protected and everything is allright
