RE: WORM_KLEZ.G Sever Impact - OLE_Object error on SCANMAIL

[Exchange News - John Twilley]

We suddenly have a problem where people running any Outlook version less
than 2002 CANNOT do the following:

- Hit Print Screen Key.
- E-mail it to yourself in an HTML format Outlook e-mail.  (uses OLE)

Users are getting the following notice back: (without attachment)

"Trend ScanMail has found a virus in the original OLE_Object in this email,
and has deleted the OLE_Object."

Can some of you ScanMail users test this on your POST-Klez systems.  Trend
has been working on this for 1.5 days.

Aha....Now I see. Looks like I got off lightly then as I have had no reports
of this one from any of my users.

 PPHHEEEEWW!

Thanks

Hi there

The problem is really not the virus itself (that gets stripped), but the
stupid script that open Windows media player.  I have my machine (Windows
2K, IE 6) fully patched and it still happens!!

What a pain in the butt!!

Thanks

Russell
