Something new going around?

I've gotten a couple of similar things in the last days. Here's a
helpful message from Verizon's scanner agent on one of them:
           From: 
Microsoft Network
Security
Department

        Subject: 
[spam score 4/10

WARNING!!! (from smtp.vzavenue.net)

The following message attachments were flagged by the antivirus scanner:

Attachment [2.2] Qg.exe, virus infected: W32/Gibe-F.  Action taken:
deleted

I guess I should go search on Gibe-F at the appropriate sites.
