New Virus making the rounds.

[Medea]

Shinerburke, thanks for the heads up.

 

[Stark]

We started getting this at work yesterday. NAV virus defs from yesterday catch it.

 

[Balt]

*sigh*

People are still so stupid. Yes, let's open this random attachment from someone that I don't know. It couldn't possibly be a virus.

 

[dnuggett]

Thanks for the heads up. Most of us should be ok with a little common sense.

 

[Rogue]

FYI!

There is a variant making it's rounds now.

Subject: don't be late!

Well, an old IBM Model M might be good for beating a person, but I'd rather use it to type with.

That's the beauty of the Model M. You can do BOTH!

why is this even stickified? there's new virus' all the time.

When there isn't a new virus coming out, THEN it should be stickified.

Thanks for the updates.

Just FYI .d & .e are now spreading!

See your virus vendor site for more info.

Just had a client call about getting .D - he saw that the email came from john@domain.com and thought someone had control over their domain... LMAO!

DESTROY THEM!

Open the floodgates to hell! Unleash your collections of ancient and obscure virii. CODE YOUR OWN! Do everything within your power and abilities.

HACK THE GIBSON!

This ain't no gibson - these are loser ass script kiddies. Much more worthwhile target.

Theres a script that makes viruses for people? Wow..

Thats nothing new. My friends brother was using some stupid script program to make virrii on a 486

 

[imported_Papi]

I keep s getting e-mails from support@microsoft.com ans there is something attached which I have not opened.

the body of text message reads:

Dear friend , use this Internet Explorer patch now!
There are dangerous virus in the Internet now!
More than 500.000 already infected!

are they complete idiots to think someone will think its actually microsoft sending that message? What kind of idiot doesnt know that windows updates automatically if theres a patch...

 

[TerryMathews]

I picked up w32.panchi from somewhere recently... Let me tell you, it's one mean MF. It's infected almost all of the exes on my computer. I booted into safe mode to try and clean the computer, but I think it's still spreading. Looks like I'm going to have to terminate all the processes except AV.

Or old surplus mice. Ow... take a spare mouse and whip it around by the cable... would be like the part of Full Metal Jacket where they throw a Soap Party for Pvt Pyle and beat the hell outta him.
