windows.exe VIRUS

Chippp · 04-30-2002, 10:26 AM

Someone email me a letter with the attachment "windows.exe" file,
It had the heading "your new password".
It would have been a virus, I stop it downloading and deleted it through the internet provider email managemnet web site.
Keep your eyes open!

This is the third virus in the last 4-5 days sent to me.

We have recieved serveral emails containing the W32/Klez.h@MM worm.

You can find out more here http://vil.mcafee.com/dispVirus.asp?virus_k=99455

I have read some reports that this one has infected 7% of all Windows based PC's and has moved into the top spot on the infection chart.
