New Computer Virus

Post by Stace »

Hey folks,

This may not be where this belongs, so admins, feel free to move it!

Theres a new virus going around, it's a worm that launch D.O.S. attacks. I know most of you know not to open attachments, but I wanted to make special note of this one. Because my Stace@ourladypeace.net account is in a lot of internet caches and people sign me up to lists etc, I get a lot of viruses.

To date on this one I've recieved bouncebacks that look like they've come from .net accounts (which don't exist) as well as bouncback or error messages from emails from addressed ourladypeace.cc and clumsymonkey.net.

They have attachments with .scr and they are viruses. No one at .cc CM or .net is sending out theses attachments (i assume ;-) )

Just a heads up to those who need it!

Right now there's a lot of viruses going around, so here's the deal...

DO NOT open e-mails from people you don't know, even if you think it might be that hot girl/guy who's been checking you out, looking for a good time. Just delete it, they'll contact you in some other way.

DO delete anything that you're even slightly unsure about.

DO NOT think that when a virus e-mail comes from someone's address that they sent it. It's being sent through them, not by them.

DO get naked. As much as possible.

The last tip is by far the most successful.
