Eagle 07-22-2001, 04:19 PM Ah well...
just thought i'd share
venomx 07-22-2001, 04:41 PM Yeah got 5 of these today... heh Set OE to auto block attachments that may contain trojans works...
Eagle 07-22-2001, 04:44 PM Will that block ALL attackments or just trojans?
Get-Hosted.com 07-22-2001, 04:50 PM It will probably block the .exe extension. I haven't got one yet, worst I've gotten is the 7 dwarfs story one about two times.
Vortech 07-22-2001, 05:15 PM We have gotten like 200 of these damn thangs what a pain to delete them all..LOL
JustinK 07-22-2001, 06:06 PM I got hordes of the 7 dwarves one. I even got a couple in other languages. A virus in multiple languages... they're getting too smart.
The Prohacker 07-22-2001, 06:30 PM Its funny, people never send me virii on purpose, its usually for me to mess with...
Same with spam....
TheComputerGuy 07-22-2001, 08:50 PM sh%t
How can I get rid of it
hotmail said it was no virus detected...how can I get it off?
Eagle 07-22-2001, 08:53 PM Hmm
if you use hotmail you are safe
unless you downloaded the attachment and ran it...
Goto that URL I posted and download that check thing
You'll see if you're infected or not...
Looks a little strange
its a small .com (.com??? It's 2001!!) file,
however its from symantec, the same dudes as NAV...
just my $0.02

Now that I think of it,
I think they made it .com because else the worm might infect the .exe....
Cause the first 2 bytes of the file look EXACTLY like an .exe header: "MZ"
Just my $0.02
(so in other words, just a rename *.exe --> *.com)
creepcolony 07-22-2001, 09:52 PM i got a lot of those and the seven dwarfs one
i don't understand why i am getting them...i don't recognize any of the emails
Dylan 07-22-2001, 10:46 PM Oh no. I just opened the thing.
First it tried to display as a DVD movie, that didn't work so I saved it as a .doc - a bunch of programming at the top and then the letter right at the bottom.
Don't know if it did anything... suppose I better go and check...
davidb 07-22-2001, 10:47 PM I got 3 of those to my personal email. I hate when I get virus's in my mail
Eagle 07-22-2001, 11:01 PM Originally posted by davidb

Really? I wonder why :D
Dylan 07-22-2001, 11:06 PM I replied to the sender and wholla... a second later, a reply with a new subject and file, this time a .pif, arrives.
The infected PC owner sending to me must be a building contractor.
TheComputerGuy 07-23-2001, 07:59 AM I get a no user there...Daemon must love a lot of people...
venomx 07-23-2001, 11:22 AM It blocks all but say .jpg and .gif... for the others you just go to options and turn the blocking off and save the file....
akashik 07-23-2001, 11:50 AM Getting the same one, only it's a .bat file - must have had that thing sent to my e-mail addresses 20 times this week :rolleyes:
While most of us sensible enough not to open these things I shudder to think of the millions of people who are poking that file right now...

creepcolony 07-23-2001, 05:25 PM argh when will these go away?

Tim Greer 07-23-2001, 06:21 PM I've only gotten two, but both are from different sources, different subjects and different type's of files, or so it's supposed to seem:

I just have my file extentions associated with Notepad, unless it's a text, HTML or image file or the like. Anything else, there's no reason to execute it, unless you specifically and intentionally do so. Otherwise, associate everything else with Notepad. I think the funniest thing about this new one, is that it's coming from sources I've no idea whom they are. I mean, it's different for most people when it comes from someone you at least know. Man, they aren't getting smarter, if you ask me.
