Security Warning
02 February 2006, 03:55


I hope l am ok posting this warning here.
I have f-secure antiv and firewall l recieved the following warning from f-secure:

New Breplibot variant has been mass spammed to thousands of email addresses today. It was spoofed to look like it was coming from f-secure email address, including press @f-secure.com and info @f-secure.com.
This is further info from f-secure on sorting the problem etc. http://www.f-secure.com/v-descs/breplibot_ae.shtml

Then yesterday l received a warning from one of the above addresses well l had 3 same person 3 emails each addy different.
They tell me that the links are not working and the person uses mozilla (so do l all site links work)

So if you get any warnings saying your links are not woking and they come from any or more varyations warning you links are not working do not open them

If your antivirus is updated it should pick it up. Just run a full scan. (Sorry for hijacking your topic CaroUK)<
