W32.Sobig.F@mm
W32.Sobig.F@mm
is a mass-mailing, network-aware worm that sends itself to
all the email addresses it finds in the files with the following
extensions:
- .dbx
- .eml
- .hlp
- .htm
- .html
- .mht
- .wab
- .txt
The worm uses its own SMTP engine to propagate and will attempt
to create a copy of itself on accessible network shares.
Symantec Security Response has developed a removal
tool to clean the infections of W32.Sobig.F@mm.
The SULFNBK.EXE
Warning
For
the last few weeks a email has been going around as follows:
Hello!
I just got this letter from my friend and yes I had the virus
as well please follow the directions to see if you have the
virus and then follow the directions to get rid of it. Like
my friend I am sorry that I passed it along as well.
Dear
All: We received a virus on a message. I followed the instructions
below and found that it had been spread to our computer. I
followed the instructions and located the virus and was able
to delete it. The bad news is that you probably have it, as
you are in My Address book! More bad news is that my anti
virus program did not detect this virus. The virus lies dormant
for 14 days and then "kills" your hard drive.
Here
is what to do. If you follow the instructions and then see
that you have the virus, you need to send a similar e-mail
to everyone in your address book. Remove the virus by following
these steps: (and goes on with instructions on how to delete
it.)
If
it has a reference to SULFNBK.EXE it is a hoax! You don't
have to do anything. |
