Hi all EOS'ers... Sorry for the off-topic, but it's quite important to keep your PC alive (and let you participate in the list ;-) ;-) [This virus is striking hard!] This is a warning (specially to the male population among us ;-) There's a new virus walking arround with the name "Anna Kournikova". An extract of the release at the McAfee site follows. (www.macafee.com) VBS/SST@MM (AnnaKournikova Virus) Help Center VBS/SST@MM is a HIGH-RISK virus that is spread using the Windows email program Outlook. The infected email can come from addresses that you recognize. Attached is a file name AnnaKournikova.jpg.vbs. When run, the script copies itself to the WINDOWS directory as "AnnaKournikova.jpg.vbs". It attempts to mail a separate email message, using MAPI messaging, to all recipients in the Windows Address Book using the following information: Subject: Here you have, ;o) Body: Hi: Check This! Attachment: AnnaKournikova.jpg.vbs It also creates a registry key and key values. The script refers to these values to check if the mailing routine has already taken place: HKEY_USERS\.DEFAULT\Software\OnTheFly HKEY_USERS\.DEFAULT\Software\OnTheFly\mailed=(1 for yes) ------------------ You've been warned!
