Virus warning = Fake Microsoft Email

[KatDiesel]

Just recieved a virus in my email. My Norton caught it when I was getting my email, so its in quarantine.



It was discovered on : March 4, 2002



So if you have antivirus software make sure you keep it upto date.



w32gibe@mm virus info It tries to disguise itself as a email about Microsoft Security... ... but its not.



No I am not infected with it... this is just a warning to others.

Kat - turn off Norton and open the file - Then tell us what it does



Thanks for the heads up

It installs a Backdoor Trojan which allows remote access to the infected system.



Wanna test it out Doc?

 

[Doc Tinker]

No Kat - I don't go for the back door stuff - Thanks anyway



Doc
