Several of my customers have infected machines and other customers have
received this garbage and have been smart enough to trash it.
What I find interesting is that a) the headers of these messages do not
include the usual client or platform information associated with the sender
and b) the mail appears to go directly from the sender's machine to the
recipient.
Could this 68K virus have enough built-in SMTP functionality to make direct
contact with the recipient's server? The program is definitely constructing
headers (this can be seen in the text of the executable), but could it be
playing SMTP gateway as well?
