[plug] W32.Novarg.A at mm

[senectus]

Yupp.. Getting hammered by it..

Strange thing occurred too..
Three days ago I created a new e-mail account at westnet. I haven't used
this account to send or receive any e-mails and I haven't told anyone about
it.. but somehow I have received the virus in that account.. My guess is
that westnet is infected and they sent it too me..

hey people,

I seem to be getting heaps of emails containing this virus today, has anyone
else experienced the same phenomenon?

http://securityresponse.symantec.com/avcenter/venc/data/w32.novarg.a@mm.html

the message subject lines have been "Error" "TEST" "Test" "Returned mail:
User unknown"
and have attached files such as "document.pif" "dohbr.scr" "document.scr"

And the virus apparently sends a DOS attack to www.sco.com (which i dont
mind so much heh!)

Paul
