Over the weekend, a new email virus came out, and of this morning we have
had several cases of users being affected by this virus. Below is the
information from Symantec.
W32.Myparty@mm is a mass-mailing email worm. The worm arrives via email
with the following characteristics:
Subject: new photos from my party!
Body:
Hello!
My party... It was absolutely amazing!
I have attached my web page with new photos!
If you can please make color prints of my photos. Thanks!
Attachment name: www.myparty.yahoo.com
The worm emails everyone in the Windows Address Book and by searching for
email addresses in Outlook Express inboxes and folders.
In addition, the worm sends a message to the author allowing him to track
the worm.
Finally, the worm may launch your webbrowser to
http://www.disney.com if
the filename is 'access' with any extension.
