Checked out on Snopes:

With the holidays fast approaching, watch out for this, be alert.

Please read the following. It applies to Fed Ex as well, Thanks.
================================================
The newest virus circulating is the UPS Delivery Failure. You will receive an email from UPS Packet Service along with a packet number. NOTE: The word packet is misspelled on this line. It will say that they were un-able to deliver a package sent to you on such and such a date. It then asks you to print out the invoice copy attached. DON'T TRY TO PRINT THIS. IT LAUNCHES THE VIRUS! Pass this warning on to all your PC operators at work and home. This virus has caused millions of dollars in damage in the past few days.


Snopes confirms that it is real:

I knew that, but the pixie had me. I just couldn't resist my "Practice Safe" line. ;D

Ah, the joys of booting all of Bill Gate's software off my computer....Got Linux? I'm sure someday the jerks of the world will start writing bugs for Linux, but until then I will enjoy it's benefits to the fullest ;D
