Warning on possible Spam/malware

[Anak]

Hi! Everyone,

Just received this (See attachment) in my email today.

It seemed suspicious right off the bat because as everyone should know that Microsoft/Windows would never send an alert out to personal email, although the poster in post #11 did receive it in his/her Windows Live Mail.
The user would/should receive notification though Windows Update.

If you do a search of the senders address there is something not quite right with it, a possible redirect.

Check post #11 here: Received e-mail from "Windows Live Messenger Team"... - Neowin Forums

Here is a response from the Windows Live Solution Center about the same sender that has to do with Hotmail:
Received message from communications_msn_cs_enuk microsoft.windowslive.com <[email protected]>

As far as I can tell this goes back as far as early 2009. I just marked it as spam and told my provider to mark anymore of them as such and delete it at their servers.

It's spam with malware!
