Trojan horse in email

I received this email today:

[quote] Mail server report.

Our firewall determined the e-mails containing worm copies are being sent
from your computer.

Nowadays it happens from many computers, because this is a new virus type
(Network Worms).

Using the new bug in the Windows, these viruses infect the computer
unnoticeably. After the penetrating into the computer the virus harvests all
the e-mail addresses and sends the copies of itself to these e-mail
addresses

Please install updates for worm elimination and your computer restoring.

Best regards,
Customers support service [/quote]

I checked it out oon the internet first and it seems to be an old trick. Be careful not to download the attachment if it is sent to you.


I like that they use “nowadays” in the faux email. That’s hot.

And yet there’s not one mention of free viagra alternatives, easy video poker, or ersatz Nigerian bank accounts. What’s the world coming to?
