It looks like Symantec is a little slow on this one.  BBS.SST@mm 
(ANNAKOURNIKOVA.JPG.VBS) is a featured Virus Alert on their Service and Support 
page:  http://www.symantec.com/techsupp/

However, (on http://www.sarc.com/) they list the date of finding it as Feb.12, 
2001 (today) and protection is pending.  As of a few minutes ago they are 
"still working on it."

Luckily I picked it up as a .vbs file and deleted it.
