Microsoft Corporation Security Center
I received today a third e-mail from the Microsoft Corporation Security Center, in which they are warning for a security failure in MS Explorer and Outlook/Expresse. With the attached .exe file you’ll be able to fix the problem. Luckely I have now Norton Antivirus with the latest virus definitions. Everytime when the mail was entering my pc, my virus program allerted. The attached ‘bugfixer’ was identified as a virus.
After the third time, I checked the web and discovered that I’m not the only one affected: please take notice of the message at Symantec , F-Secure Computer Virus Information Pages: Gibe , or CERT Incident Note IN-2002-02: W32/Gibe Malicious Code .
NOTE: The email is not from MS and is containing a virus/worm. Make sure not to open the attachement (when using a pc) and get a virus killer.
