[CLUE-Talk] Fwd: VIRUS ALERT - W32/Naked@MM

[Grant Johnson]

This was a McAfee alert.  I have modified it to be funnier.  However, this 
is a real threat if you or someone you know is a Windows user.  Fortunately 
I do not have the misfortune of associating with these ruffians.

>Dear McAfee.com Dispatch Subscriber:
>
>Since its discovery early on March 6, 2001, McAfee.com has
>seen a large and growing number of computers infected with
>W32/Naked at MM. This is a LOW RISK virus because it is spreading
>rapidly via the Windows email program Outlook.  Using the Outlook address 
>book reduces the vulnerability because people who use Outlook generally 
>have few or no friends (friends don't let friends use Outlook.)
>The infected email can come from addresses that you recognize. This is 
>however unlikely since none of your friends use Outlook (see above.) 
>Attached is a file named NakedWife.exe, which poses as a Flash movie. This 
>further reduces the risk as "real" computers do not support the .exe file type.
>The email message can appear as follows:
>
>Subject: Fw: Naked Wife
>Body:
>My wife never look like that! ;-)
>
>Best regards,
>(sender's name)
>
>Attachment: NakedWife.exe
>
>When run, it copies itself to a TEMP directory and displays
>a window entitled "Flash" which reads "JibJab loading". It
>then attempts to delete all .BMP, .COM, .DLL, .EXE, .INI,
>and .LOG files in the WINDOWS and WINDOWS\SYSTEM directories, of which 
>none of these directories should be found on your PC,
>and emails itself to all recipients in the Windows Address Book using 
>Microsoft Outlook, thus reducing the danger.
