Do any of you block incoming e-mails containing ActiveX references? I just received a spam that tried to instantiate an object at http:// %363.2%346.%3130.2%30%31%2F%63g%69%2D%62i%6E%2Fa%2E%63%67%69." I translated that to a real URL (http://63.246.130.201 /cgi-bin/a.cgi) and let the colo NOC know, but that only goes so far.
I already have my own Outlook HTML security set to Restricted sites, which protected me in this particular case, but I don't have any means of pushing that to the rest of the firm's Outlook users (yes, I'm thinking about AutoProf; is there anything else?). I suppose I could try to block "< o b j e c t" at my e-mail gateway (mailsweeper), but that could be defeated but adding extra spaces between the "<" and "object." _________________________________________________________________ List posting FAQ: http://www.swinc.com/resource/exch_faq.htm Web Interface: http://intm-dl.sparklist.com/cgi-bin/lyris.pl?enter=exchange&text_mode=&lang=english To unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Exchange List admin: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
