Neue Virusmeldung vom 20.08.03

[Reptile]

Hi Leute,

wieder mal ist ein gefährlicher Virus im Umlauf... dieses mal ist es ein "High Risk" Virus:

Dear Michael,

A new variant of W32/Sobig,  W32/Sobig.f@MM is a High Risk mass-mailing worm. It arrives as an email attachment with a .pif or .scr extension. When run, it infects the host computer, then emails itself (using its own SMTP engine) to harvested email addresses from the victim's machine. In addition, when it propagates, the worm "spoofs" the "from: field", using one of the harvested email addresses.

Note: The worm copies itself onto the infected machine as: C:\WINNT\WINPPR32.EXE

Caution: An infected email can come from addresses you recognize and may contain the following information:
