Here's an update on the situation. Still awaiting the 3rd fix from MS. Apparently W2K sites enabling emailing attachments such as those using osticket were among the targets. Once a site's infected, you can catch the infection on your local pc just by visiting the site.
XP Svc Pack 2, RC2 people are safe.

The MS site has info on how to detect if you're infected:

Apparently 3 patches are required. Two are already out, but the 3rd hasn't been released yet.
