Subject: Virus Warning...
Today I received an email with a virus in it: It looked like the message that was sent from me to all users when we changed the domain name. I scanned it with www.spamcop.net and it appears to come from the ntlworld.com domain.
I deleted the 2 users with that domain in the email address and blocked it.

Here is the original message with the headers, it was blocked by Norton:

It was`nt from here...my alternate email address got the same thing,
it will ethier email delivery failure or some type of returned email.
If you get something along these lines..DELETE IT.
if you did`nt send an email recently, ignore it.
Sometimes jokers drop viruses in these email so don`t open it.
Remember if you use windows 95/98/XP..etc..hackers and virus makers
love to reek havoc on these OS, for some reasom Mac and Linux seem to be safe for now.
but keep your gaurd up anyway.

Subject:
Yes

It comes by an attachment 49,9kb sized. I had 7 of them today ](*,)
be carefull :-k

Never open an email with attachments. When you do, all that you are doing
is spreading the email virus from you address book to everyone on the list
and so on.
If I don't know the sender, the email goes straight to the trash bin and is deleted.

The virus didn't originate from here, but it is possible that a member's email was infected
and it spread that way without their knowledge.
These things pop-up almost every few weeks, so we all have to be vigilant.

A friend told me that if I don't use the Microsoft Outlook the virus don't work! Someone knows if it is true? :-? :-? :-?

No it isn't. In order to infect your computer with a virus from e-mail, you HAVE to execute an attachment. You won't get infected for just viewing the text of the E-mail. The virus itself needs to be executed. As a rule, never execute any unknown attachments. Even some known ones for that matter. Another course of action for anyone using an NT based O/S. eg win XP, 2000, NT workstation, server etc. is to manually disable your tftp port. port 69. As many viruses eg. nimda, used this port to replicate itself over a network. Port 69 is used for tftp traffic, which is basically trafic to flash software images to e-proms on routers and other peripheral equipment. if you aren't doing anything like that, then there is no need for it to be open.

PM me for more info....
