Yes, a forum search for this or kama sutra or blackworm or Nyxem.E (all aliases of the same virus) it has been extensively covered over the last few days.

Severity: High Risk

BlackWorm is a new and potentially destructive Internet worm currently making its way around the globe. It is infecting users via e-mail and is scheduled to destroy all Microsoft Word, Excel, PowerPoint, PDF, PSD and ZIP files on Feb. 3.

so glad Avast has already covered it

It appears he is using a Netscape browser and that may be why it looks different.    :)

The black border, Start button, task bar, etc. aren't a part of the Netscape browser, I think that is what is being sought.
