I have received this thing a few times. Seems genuine, but has an 
attachment that is called "installer.exe" that i would bet is a 
virus/trojan/whatever:
=====================
MS Customer

this is the latest version of security update, the "September 2003, 
Cumulative Patch" update which eliminates all known security 
vulnerabilities affecting MS Internet Explorer, MS Outlook and MS 
Outlook Express as well as three newly discovered vulnerabilities. 
Install now to help protect your computer from these vulnerabilities. 
This update includes the functionality of all previously released patches.
[snip]
* Recommendation* Customers should install the patch at the earliest 
opportunity.
=====================

Anyone else seen this?
