| I was retrieving my email...and the sirens started going off. It detected I had an email from Microsoft with the subject "Use this patch immediately!"
I had my virus protection delete the attachment completely.
Inbound message INFECTED:
\patch.exe (Win32:Dumaru [Wrm]) was deleted from the message.
The text of the email read:
Dear friend , use this Internet Explorer patch now!
There are dangerous virus in the Internet now!
More than 500.000 already infected!
Now, I would have been leary of this email anyhow...but I really like this new demo I am using. It is AVAST virus protection. I will definately be getting the full version.
It updates itself,and runs everytime I check my email,and open a browser...good for those non-tech types. :) |
