VIRUS ALERT : tera@scorescash

-=HUNGRYMAN=- · 07-14-2003, 01:56 AM

Anybody who is on an orgasmcash mailing list, be on the lookout for a virus being maliciously sent with headers tara@scorescash

the headers are spoofed !! Tara left scorescash like a month ago

Examining the mail header you will see that this email comes from a third party email, and has the attachment readme.scr

Last time I checked, it was pretty fucking hard to read a screensaver ... but very easy to execute a trojan thru one

if you receive this email, delete it at once !!!

If you receive ANY MAIL from a sponsor with an attachment, scan it before opening ...

Let me further add for the record, that both SCORESCASH and ORGASMCASH are stand up companies, and should not be held responsible for the action of some bored kid in mis mama's basement ...

But I do think somebody needs to guard their mailing list a little better in the future ...

I see your problem right away. You're using Outlook.

Those scr viruses are Klem32 email worms, so it's probably impossible at this point to know who originated the one you're talking about.

I get about 40 Klem32 worms (or dirivitives thereof) every week. My Norton picks 'em up on the way in so I don't even have to think about it very much. And I get too many to follow up on too, so I just get rid of the emails and carry on with my day.

By the way.... switch to Eudora 5.1
The vast majority of those email viruses are created with Outlook and Outlook Express in mind. However Eudora just doesn't understand what to do with email viruses and worms.
