Ever since yesterday I've gotten like 10 e-mails, all with the top saying: WARNING!!! (from md1.mail.umd.edu) The following message attachments were flagged by the antivirus scanner: Attachment [2.2] mail.zip, virus infected: W32/Sober-Z. Action taken: deleted
And the subjects are stuff like Mail_Delivery_Failed, smtp_mail failed, smtp mail failed. The senders seem bogus like "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" and "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" (I don't even use hotmail!) And I have a few with subjects "Registration Confirmation" and then one last one that is just blatant virus talking about use attachment to download videos of Paris Hilton. I looked up the virus and it seems to only infect Windows systems. However, does this mean my umd mail account is hacked, or the sent mail failed is just more virus trickery. Maybe a bunch of servers with my address in their book got infected? Have you guys been getting a similar surge of these e-mails? What do you all think? - Aaron
