Hi,

The message from Graham Radcliff is not the only one. In the last 2 days I
have received 4 mails with the same virus from different sources.

I also received one from:  Greg Blakely, but when checking the headers of
that message it was uploaded not by greg, but somewhere by a dial-in account
in the netherlands. So it is spoofing the "sender" too. That mail looked
like a "GW-List" mail.

The Virus reported is "W32.Bugbear@mm virus", which is very active the last
couple of days, and a "catagory 4" (out of 5) threat. (It is also known as
Tanatos)
More info on :

http://securityresponse.symantec.com/avcenter/venc/data/w32.bugbear@mm.html

There are reports that the virus tries to steal creditcard / payment
information from your computer.

(Systems Not Affected: Macintosh, Unix, Linux  ;o)


Regards,
Cees - PA3AES
