Hello all... Just a warning that we got two emails tonight with attachments... both emails, from two different people, had the following message: Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1 Content-Disposition: message text Hi! How are you? I send you this file in order to have your advice See you later. Thanks [attachment is located below this message] ------------------------ We deleted the attachment and I'm enclosing here a message from Lynn Nelson, professor emeritus at the University of Kansas concerning a virus/worm that might be what the two attachments we got were all about..... ----------Message from Dr. Nelson--------------- In the past twenty-four hours, I've received eight messages containing the W32.Sircam.Worm@mm worm. These messages have come from North and South America, Europe and East Asia, so the distribution appears to be quite extensive. All of the messages have contained either "Te mando este archivo para que me des tu punto de vista" or "I send you this file in order to have your advice," and the files have been listed variously as 124Kb, 116Kb, etc. and all are identified as MIXED. This worm also acts as a virus with a potential of inflicting very serious damage on your machine. Since it was first reported on 17 July, you may not yet have updated your anti-virus software so that it can recognize infected files.
