Hi all @bgafd

Just thought i'd better inform you that there is a malicious virus being sent about that seems to be targeted at Adult site's email addresses,

it is an email claiming to be from someone called angel which basically says "test" then some gibberish random text in the message box and then "hiya" the problem is the .exe attachment which embeds itself in your outlook express and sends out emails to everyone in your contact list and inbox which probably contains the same virus.

I personally havent been affected by this virus but a few of my close friends in the industry have so i thought i'd better let you all know!

Just delete the message if you ever receive anything like this,

many regards

jay

If you think you might have got the Novarg virus/worm, Symantec/Nortan have a free Removal Tool available for download.

They will check your system and, if necessary, remove all traces of the virus.
