#229538 - 01/26/04 10:03 PM NFR - New virus infects PCs!!!
SnowDog Returning Adult Registered: 11/12/02 Posts: 270 Loc: Bothell	A mass-mailing virus quickly spread through the Internet on Monday. The virus--known as MyDoom, Novarg and as a variant of the Mimail virus by different antivirus companies--arrives in an in-box with one of several different random subject lines, such as "Mail Delivery System," "Test" or "Mail Transaction Failed." The body of the e-mail contains an executable file and a statement such as: "The message contains Unicode characters and has been sent as a binary attachment." DO NOT OPEN ANY EMAILS that resemble the ones describred above!!! SA _________________________ "Plus ça change Plus c’est la même chose"

Mr. Twister Returning Adult Registered: 01/06/01 Posts: 345 Loc: wa	I got about a half-dozen of them yesterday. It must have spread fast, I rarely see that many viruses at that speed. I'm immune to it too at home. Just another reason to run Linux. _________________________ Give a man a fish, and you'll feed him for a day; give him a religion, and he'll starve to death while praying for a fish.
