Is this a new virus? n/m it is a KLEZ virus

[pyonir]

the email text is:

Hi,This is a very nice game
This game is my first work.
You're the first player.
I expect you would like it.

and it comes with two attachments (which i haven't opened) called:

demo.exe
and
ispsbusy.htm

Anyone seen this before? the from address is weird too, it is:

From: 2GriladesSao_orl <2GriladesSao_orl@rwtrcdm.r>

Definitely sounds like a virus to me.

 

[edjam]

Could be I suppose, probably is actually, send it to Symantec or someone.

I got that same email last week. I deleted it like I do all email with unexpected attachments. You should do the same.

oh i am. i was just curious. did a little googling and it looks like an old trojan virus. appears to be a pretty nasty one too. i wonder how i got it, i really don't give that email address out to anyone. oh well...

EDIT: actually found it is a Klez.E worm. 😀

I have been getting a lot of random e mails like that recently.

I think it might be Klez. I got that same email plus 13 others of different flavors.

COOL! 😛

A variant of Klez that spoofs email address and comes through some sort of javascript malcode is going around.
