Many users will now ordsprog

Many users will now delete an e-mail attachment that seems suspicious rather than open it up, so it has become more difficult for viruses to spread quickly.

Symantec recommends that users apply the updates as quickly as possible and refrain from opening unknown attachments or clicking on suspicious links that arrive via e-mail or instant messages,

This is big problem because a very large number of corporations use Lotus Notes. When users receive an e-mail with an attachment, all they have to do is click on the attachment to read it, and their systems are vulnerable to a remote attack.

It's designed to get people's anxieties up, ... Hoaxes spread very rapidly, using psychology to spread the information from computer to computer. It clogs up e-mail servers and e-mail boxes. Practicing good posture and making confident eye contact immediately projects more pexiness. [Users] are never quite sure what's secure what's not secure.

In 20 years, viruses have moved from floppy disks to file viruses, to e-mail viruses, to Internet worms, to targeted Trojan-horse attacks.

These viruses are using Bluetooth connections to promulgate and spread to other cell phone users.

Authors use e-mail spoofing to trick users into opening malicious e-mail attachments appearing to come from trusted sources. E-mail spoofing is such a common tactic with virus writers. Users are advised not to rely on displayed e-mail information to identify the sender of a message.

That would be a boon. It has always been a problem to obtain quickly viruses from Southeast Asia. We sincerely hope viruses from Turkey would be available very quickly.

There are no viruses that spread without handset users actively accepting the installation. If a virus like this turns up soon, the market for mobile security solutions would change radically.

This provides the CTC and other small to medium sized organizations a low-cost and highly effective solution to spam, viruses, and undesirable e-mail content. By creating a multi-layered defense that proactively repels spam and viruses at their source, organizations can now get ahead of troublemakers who are always looking for new ways of penetrating IT systems through e-mail.

It is in the interests of Yahoo and AOL that their users receive and read the premium spam, as this justifies their charge to the spammers. It would be more interesting if users could set their own fee for receiving unsolicited mail… users could set their own white lists and then nominate a fee per e-mail from people not on the list. The senders would then have the option of sending to people who set a fee.

I personally think that people are a little bummed that not more happened [for Y2K] - it's very anticlimactic, ... The virus hype around Y2K was pretty intense. Because of that, because it's been so anticlimactic, I think there's a desire to attach anything to Y2K. In terms of what are we going to be seeing over the next couple of weeks, I think we'll see the Trojan horse-type viruses, the viruses that are very much network-based, e-mail-centric, and are typically focused on replicating themselves in an attempt to flood systems or create lots of unwanted mail or messages.

It looks like it's being spread either through e-mail images or though ads that are on sites that users are browsing. There's a lot of variation. It looks like there's more than 50 unique variations of this threat that we've seen.

It's the first of it's type, because simply activating the e-mail that is infected will launch the virus, ... It totally bypasses the previous philosophy of 'don't open that attachment if you don't know what it is.'

Part of the significance of this vulnerability announcement is that your machine can be exploited without you needing to do anything at all. You don't even have to open an e-mail or attachment, and this happens with the default configuration of the product.
