THIS IS NOT A HOAX!!!! Someone out there on this list is infected with a virus. When I wrote the message about Pearl Harbor, I received back an email with an attachment called: YOU_ARE_FAT!.MP3.scr This is, in fact, a virus. If you recieve it, DO NOT DOWNLOAD THE FILE!!!!!! The name of the virus is: W32/Badtrans@MM The sender's address was: _nauvoo@interpath.com (Jerry Verba) This new variant of Badtrans drops a password stealing trojan . Once running, the trojan attempts to mail the victim's IP Address to the author. Once this information is obtained, the author can connect to the infected system via the Internet and steal personal information such as usernames, and passwords. In addition, the trojan also contains a keylogger program which is capable of capturing other vital information such as credit card and bank account numbers and passwords. If you have been infected, write to me personally, and I will tell you how to fix it. It is very simple to do. Or, with the list's permission, I can pass on the information here. Please, everyone...update your anit-viruses ONCE A WEEK! It is VERY important when you are on a list such as this. Thanks!
