There is a new virus making the rounds, get details of it here http://www.sarc.com/avcenter/venc/data/vbs.hard.a@mm.html

The funny thing about this one, is that it poses as a virus warning email from Symantec and the details are in the included file. Well guess what, the included file IS a virus!

Thanks and the visual payload was amusing.

That one's pretty funny. Really, all the author did was point out how people will click on anything. And then he tells them about it. hahaha. If it weren't for the mass mailing, this might not be such a bad thing. :rolleyes:

I have Post many Posts Before about a Simple Reg file that will make the Default Operation of VBS (Open) Associated with NotePad.
This way i don't have to worry that a User will run a VBS Script via Email.

Or, one can simply block *.VBS files at the firewall. Did this last week and has already paid off in spades. :D
