Hello,

just to be sure: I already got a few messages like the one below,
about virus Sobig.C. They seem to be send to
[EMAIL PROTECTED] I hope everybody on the list gets them, or
something is very wrong with my system. I checked for virusses (using
both f-prot and antivir), but couldn't find any. Moveover, as far as I
know, a Linux system can't be infected by Sobig C.

So, I wonder: is everyone on the list getting these messages? is it my
system, or somebody else's? if it's mine, why is it not found (I have
recent definition files)? if it's not, can I found out who's system is
infected?


Kurt.

Mail from [EMAIL PROTECTED]
sent on Tuesday June 3 2003 at 08:17 (GMT+1200):

   An attachment called (WORM_SOBIG.C) in an email that appears to
   have been sent from your email address to ([EMAIL PROTECTED])
   contained the virus (WORM_SOBIG.C), which has been deleted.
   
   If you do not believe you were the actual sender, the Klez virus is
   likely to be the culprit. The Klez virus works by forging the
   'From' address inside the virus infected email, which means you can
   receive a virus alert from Xtra even if you are not necessarily the
   actual sender.
