Email Virus Warning

Author: Ashleigh

There is a ‘new’ email virus doing the rounds, here is the lowdown. The email will contain a file called message.zip which contains a HTA file. This HTA will try and download activex controls to the local PC from 1gb.ru, t35.com, hzs.nm.ru, users.cjb.net and h16.ru. The subject is usually “Secure Message from HotMail.com user”.

AV Vendors are now scanning for the virus, here is the links through to the AV Vendors.
