New virus: Mydoom

[Per Hansson]

Mydoom started spreading tonight, F-Secure has given it a Level-1 alert. This virus spreads only via e-mail as an attachment so as long as your antivirus definitions are updated you are protected.

Wow level one We have another cool virus on the loose, but they never seem to get sent to me

So did i, is it that e-mail saying: HI! or STATUS or TEST...
with a stupid virusy looking attachment?

 

[StormBringer]

don't feel bad Agissi, about all I ever get anymore are the Interscan notices from my mail server stating that they have been blocked, or I get the email part but the attachment is filtered out. Apparently my ISP has a pretty decent virus scanner in place on the mail server.

Agissi; If you want to I can forward all my spam and viruses to you every day
