EMAIL VIRUS
Wednesday, 11 December 2002
Me, an' me ol' pal Mark, are having a problem with a weird virus/Trojan. It seems to take an email from the sender, add the Trojan, and repeatedly send it by making the server think that it has not been sent ---- got it?
This is the message I get when BT traps the virus. (Good service eh?)
And here is what McAfee (good trapping?) found
(See here) The file wbkb354.tmp is not on my HD.JS.Exception.Exploit is an exploit that allows Java applets to run arbitrary code on unpatched versions of Microsoft Internet Explorer. In many cases, the applet may perform simple actions, such as changing your Internet Explorer home page. However, it can also be programmed perform actions such as a mass mailing, as in the case of
VBS.Loding.A@mm, or to create file on your computer that perform almost any malicious action.
