Subydude E-mails?

Anyone else get some BS e-mail from "larry@subydude.com"?
"Your photo, uahhh.... , you are naked!" Was the text and with it was some 40KB zip file attached. (d4334938.zip)

I opened it figuring what the hell...Then my computer started to slow down and I hit "Ctrl+Alt+Delete" and saw some program running called "Details" Any idea what this might be?

I have been getting emails like that in my box recently as well.

We will look into the issue.

For right now, DO NOT open attachments in our emails unless you have ordered something. The only thing we will attach to an email is a PDF file, which is your invoice.

there has been a virus's going around that spoof peoples emails for quite sometime. They are getting better folks. Get a freakin antivirus program.

If you'd like information on this goto www.mcafee.com and see about the recent threats out.

I believe most of the spoofed ones are the beagle virus (sp?) or a variant of it.

hah!... Own3d by subydude! lots of that **** going around.. Make sure you are patched... The next round is comming up in a week or so. I just received notice from microsoft.

=====
================================================== ===============
On April 22nd, Microsoft became aware of code available on the Internet
that seeks to exploit vulnerabilities addressed as part of our April
13th security updates. You or someone in your organization has likely
received the Bulletin detailing these security updates. As a valued
customer, we are contacting you again so you have the information and
resources you need to help address any security issues that may arise.
If you are still evaluating or testing these updates, we strongly
recommend that you expedite your review and deployment of these updates,
or implement the workaround procedures, as quickly as possible.

Microsoft Product Support Alert Details:

- Microsoft is aware of code available on the Internet that seeks
to exploit vulnerabilities addressed as part of our April 13th security
updates. We are investigating the situation to help protect our
customers. Specifically, the reports detail exploit code that attempts
to use the IIS PCT/SSL vulnerability on servers running Internet
Information Services with the Secure Socket Layer authentication
enabled. This vulnerability is addressed by bulletin MS04-011.
Customers who have deployed MS04-011 are not at risk from this exploit
code.

- Microsoft considers these reports credible and serious and
continues to urge all customers to immediately install the MS4-011
update as well as the other critical updates provided on April 13th.

- Customers who are still evaluating and testing MS04-011 should
immediately implement the workaround steps detailed for the PCT/SSL
vulnerability detailed in the MS04-011. In addition, Microsoft has
published a knowledge base article KB187498 at
http://support.microsoft.com/default...b;en-us;187498 which
provides additional details on SSL and how to disable PCT without
applying MS04-011.

- We expect to see additional exploits and proof-of-concept code
targeting the April 2004 security bulletin release in coming days and
weeks, potentially including worm or virus examples.

one of our systems had a trojan virus, but have since been isolated.

and we'll never SEND your naked photo.

we'll just post it

j/k

sorry about that, hope you got it... simple update of your antivirus should fix it.
