Beware about a fake "microsoft" e-mail...

[Vivi]

Today I just received about 5 e-mails with the following subject
"Microsoft Net security upgrade, Newest critical upgrade..."but the problem was that the NAV 2002 detected a virus named W32.Swen.A@mm so if you see any "microsoft" e-mail just don't open it before having a good antivirus :wink:
BTW the e-mail is very well done, looks like an original message...


PS: i'm praguaian so sorry for my english....i'm learning!

Don't open attachments from people you don't know. Even microsoft.

Thanks for the warning... CAUSE I GOT A MICROSOFT LETTER B4. But I opened it and nothing happened It looked like a whole bunch of jumbled up letters and stuff. I dont think this is good, but how long would it take this virus to take effect? Ive got Norton Antivirus 2003 (newest im guessing). BTW Vivi nice avatar =)

The virus have an auto activation system so you don't need to open the attachment to...die
If you opened the e-mail I HIGHLY suggest to you to download
a free based virus toolkit in norton antivirus site (www.symantec.com) is just about 100 kb...
