Hello, Dave and the list,

the address [EMAIL PROTECTED] is from my sign. Have recived same
kind of failure notices from;

[EMAIL PROTECTED]

[EMAIL PROTECTED]

That doesnt mean, the computers using these addresses are infected, Mydoom
just pics up random addresses from the WAB (Windows adress-book file) from
the infected computers and uses them as the sender. 
It can also collect the fake sending addresses / addresses to senddfrom
the 
following files in the infected computer;

Mail Propagation

The worm collects addresses where to send itself from Windows' Address Book
and from files with extension:

pl
adb
tbb
dbx
asp
php
sht
htm
txt


 Peer-to-Peer Spreading 

 The worm will look up form the Windows' Registry the value containing the
users Kazaa shared folder, and it will copy itself to that location with
a filename composed from the following list: 
 winamp5
 icq2004-final
 activation_crack
 strip-girl-2.0bdcom_patches
 rootkitXP
 office_crack
 nuke2004



The summary and disinfection of Mydoom can be found from;

take care,

Hi Mark
and list, 
(Sorry Art I know we're not supposed to talk about this on the list).  Looks
like it's already made the list. I just got a returned message or  failure
notice for a message I never sent to a  "[EMAIL PROTECTED]". The
address was spoofed to make me look  like the sender. The body.pif file
was the intended payload. I traced  the header information to the real sender:

Bruno Drouet is the owner of this domain. Not sure if he's the owner of
the IP address though. 
  
Beware out there and update your virus programs!

Called W32/[EMAIL PROTECTED]

If you see anything that matches the following, delete it:

From: (spoofed email sender) - to spoof (v): to fool. In this context,
it means the message may appear to come from someone you know. It
probably didn't.
Subject: any of the following...
   Error
   Status
   Server Report
   Mail Transaction Failed
   Mail Delivery System
   hello
   hi
Body: any of the following...
   The message cannot be represented in 7-bit ascii encoding
and has been sent as a binary attachment
   The message contains Unicode characters and has been sent as
a binary attachment
   Mail transaction failed. Partial message is available
Attachment: any of the following, but can be random...
   doc.bat
   document.zip
   message.zip
   readme.zip
   text.pif
   hello.cmd
   body.scr
   test.htm.pif
   data.txt.exe
   file.scr
The attachment icon will make it look like a text file. Don't open it.

If in doubt, chuck it out!

Hi Everyone-
  The only email I have coming into this Yahoo email
address is that of the meteorite list. Kind of nice
since it is dedicated to meteorites and nothing else-
until today.
  24 messages so far were isolated into the Bulk
spam box- all with the Sobig F virus attached. Look to
be about 98-102K big. Some of the message from
addresses had a reference to this meteorite list.
Thats the scary part.
  So everyone be careful, don't open attachments and
keep your virus scan up to date. 
  Have a good night and take care. Sorry off topic, I
don't mean to be an alarmist- but I have never seen it
like this.

Mike
