narcimund 0 #5 December 9, 2002 More than likely this was Klez. That particular 'virus' has some interesting stealth habits that might be confusing you. Klez APPEARS to be sent by someone other than the person who actually is infected. It grabs two names from the victim's mailboxes then sends to one of them from the other. To track down the true source, you'll have to look at the complete headers of the email. That might or might not have enough info, depending on several factors.

lummy 4 #6 December 9, 2002 Doubtful if it came from a @dropzone.com address... Unless HH has is setup so you can do POP mail (which I don't think is the case) mail at dz.com is all web based. More than likely, someone has the KLEZ virus which will send out e-mails using someone in the address book as the sender to cover it's tracks... DAMMIT LJ!!! YOU BEAT ME!!!!

skydiverchick 0 #7 December 9, 2002 it was Klez. A friend of mine fixed my computer for me last night. I have anti virus stuff but this just creeped on in. Mother Hen Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
narcimund 0 #8 December 9, 2002 Hi to Francis! BTW, tell him Raist is sad he missed an opportunity to visit you guys a couple of weeks ago. He went down to your area for some BASE jumps and ran out of time. First Class Citizen Twice Over Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bwilling 0 #9 December 9, 2002 Quote I have anti virus stuff but this just creeped on in. ahhhhhhh, you gotta love a worm that's smart enough to disable older versions of the anti-virus software you're running before it does it's dirty work... Don't feel like the lone ranger, klez is the most widely spread computer virus ever... I have my mail server at work set up to strip executable attachments, and send me a copy of anything that it's done this to (I'm the postmaster), and I've got one guy here at work that must have klez emailed to him at least a hundred times! I told him he needs smarter friends... BTW - if you look in the message headers for the "X-Return-Path:" line, it will tell you who it REALLY came from...

bwilling 0 #11 December 9, 2002 Quote apparently I do too. Maybe not, it's really easy to get this thing (I'm a network admin, and it got loose on my network!), but he has the same group of people sending it to him over, and over, and over...
