Websense Security Labs has confirmed that the Storm worm has once again switched lure tactics. The worm has now adopted a Halloween twist in its attempts to infect users with malicious code. The first copies of the new emails began going out just before 9:00am PST on Tuesday, October 30th. As with previous Storm emails, various subjects and bodies will be used. Here is one example email:

Example Subject: Nothing is funnier this Halloween

Example Body:
Come watch the little skeleton dance.
