VIRUS KICKING ABOUT READ

Post by Sie »

Must warn you all out there to get a virus checker and zonelab as thanks to a e mail I got a bad virus which look would have it my virus checker was on it was a trojan which can and will e mail everyone from your e mail box and dammages the hardware.

THE TROJAN IS CALLED W32/BUGBEAR@MM COMES FROM MALAYSIA (THE WANKERS)
it comes down under these name manily in the UK

W32.BUGBEAR@MM (SYMANTEC), W32/BUGBEAR-A (SOPHOS0), w32/bugbear.a@mm (f-secure), W32/BUGBEAR.WORM, WIN32BUGBEAR (CA) AND FINAL ON WORM/TANATOS (CENTRALCOMMAND).

the virus comes down as attatchment and it will call its self load of names SO GET A VIRUS CHECKER if you like using your computer, you not only effect other people computers but your too will one day not work. ALSO be aware of JAVA SCRIPTS WHEN ON PORN SITES THESE ARE BASTARDS to get rid of and it will make it your home page and you'll never get rid of it also if has been known to send a virus with it and other nasty stuff you all know what I mean I think so be very aware of which sites you use

LET ME KNOW WHAT YOU THINK AND IF YOU AGREE OR IF NOT WHY?
ENDING ON A MUCH HAPPIER NOT HEAR IS SANDY DOING WHAT'S BEST FOR US ALL. FROM SIE http://www.arrakis.es/~byxo/ze.htm

Yeah just read about it on . It's mainly affecting Australia and New Zealand.

It (the virus) is sent to you by email and when you open it, the virus searches for any bank account information or credit card details and then emails them to another computer. Obviously dangerous for e commerce sites.

I don't know whether it's being done for fraud or just some twat wanting to send peoples personal information floating around on the web.

If you want to read the article that I read about then go to the site above and click on the Bug Bear story.
