I'm getting emails lately similar to this:
From: [email protected]
Date: Thu Aug 21, 2003 10:11:27 PM US/Eastern
To: [email protected]
Subject: Virus Warning
Important Information from Edith Cowan University Communications Department
_________________________________________________
The W32/Sobig-F virus was detected in attachment (movie0045.pif) in email from [email protected] (08/22/03 10:11:27).
The automated Virus protection system has taken the following action to protect the email recipients computer system.
The Virus / Attachment has been: deleted
I didn't send an email to Edith Cowan University. Is the virus sending emails and saying they are from me or something? That's not a variant I had heard of. I know I'm not infected... (Or am I? Agghh! Get it off me!! ;-)
