Hello Group, This is a little off topic but possibly of interest. I just received an email from a location in Mexico, from someone I don't know at some college, that contained the virus 'sircam.' I thought it might be of interest because EMCPSTC is the only forum I'm monitoring and responding to, so I'm guessing that someone on the list got hit and that it may be that many of you will see it as well.
Here is a link that talks about it: http://www.datafellows.com/v-descs/sircam.shtml The message you'll see is like this: From: [user@address] To: [user@address] Subject: [document name without extension] Hi! How are you? 'I send you this file in order to have your advice' or 'I hope you can help me with this file that I send' or 'I hope you like the file that I sendo you' or 'This is the file with the information that you ask for' See you later. Thanks If a system's language is set to Spanish the worm sends messages in Spanish: Hola como estas ? 'Te mando este archivo para que me des tu punto de vista' or 'Espero me puedas ayudar con el archivo que te mando' or 'Espero te guste este archivo que te mando' or 'Este es el archivo con la informaci n que me pediste' Nos vemos pronto, gracias. Needless to say, delete it. Regards, George Stults ------------------------------------------- This message is from the IEEE EMC Society Product Safety Technical Committee emc-pstc discussion list.
