It sends itself to all people from addressbook so all you from the Netherlands that have my e-mail address - please check your system!
If you need virus killer that surely detects this one - I used F-Prot.
So, if you match following:
are from the netherlands
have my e-mail address somewhere on your disk in some file (phazze @ hi . hinet . hr address not the renoise one)
Solution: use a mail program that isn’t a threat to your computer.
If you’re using Outlook, like everyone else, then you’ve only got yourself to blame IMHO… At least I have never heard of an email virus effective in any other program. They’re all designed for Outlooks scripting…
Myself, I use Putty to SSH to my university, where I run Pine.
That way I can check my mail from anywhere, without using one of
those horrible webbased clicketyclick clients.
I’ve also just set up a spamfilter which I designed myself for my needs,
which so far has been very effective. So while I may get mails like this from
people who’ve got infected, I probably won’t even notice it.
And if I do, there is no way to be infected unless I do it on purpose…
My keyboard and I have a very close relationship
After all, we spend a lot of time together, so these things are bound to happen.
But seriously, pine is simple and efficient.
No extra bullshit in the way of the task: to read and write mail.
Most things I usually do is accomplished by a single keypress.
it’s totally funny - it’s possible to order seeds online in the netherlands - stealth shipping world wide and you get a letter from belgium with a small box with sweets …
the virus didn’t infect my system - outlook is not a problem here. i just posted this to warn potential virus carriers to check their system. and… i would rather use “The Bat” as e-mail client
