This was sent to me yesterday, and thought I'd pass along the good info on the virus currently running through a lot of mail lists: Hi Everyone, Because of our extensive email list we have decided to quickly email you to warn of a new virus running rampant as of yesterday. Be careful and dont open any files or attatchments that come to you via email unless you are every sure of the sender. We have already had it sent to us more than 60 times during yesterday and this morning. The virus arrives via email attachments and then sends itself out to everyone on your email list. It also sets up a file to copy your keystrokes. I just copied this from Nortons site to assist you. The first extension that is appended to the file name is one of the following: .DOC .MP3 .ZIP The second extension that is appended to the file name is one of the following: .pif .scr The resulting file name would look something like this: CARD.DOC.PIF or NEWS_DOC.MP3.SCR etc. When executed, this worm copies itself as kernel32.exe in the "\windows\system" directory. It then adds the following registry value: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\RunOnce\Kernel32=kernel32.exe. The best prevention is not to open any files with the extension of .pif or .src if you get an email with one of these files attatched then dont open it, just delete it. Hope this saves you from getting the virus. Meg Gentry Bookout
