There is a virus being sent around to premium members. I received one from Kaolian@allakhazam.com and Angua@allakhazam.com , and Flea got one from taredoru@allakhazam.com.

How this is happening? Not sure. But let's kill whatever it is.

Working on it. Got one from Flea and Darkflame. It's either someone that has our addresses in their outlook inbox, or it's stripping premium member addresses from the search archives in Google. (yes, you can search the forum that way by the way...) I haven't had a chance to trace the IP to someone, but given the addresses that it is sending to, and the ones that are not, I'm guessing it's som,eone in Oot.

It's the bagel virus by the way...

My E-mail from Kaolian@allakhazam.com has the virus attachment intact, the other ones got blocked by my filter.

Here, play with this, see if it helps:

Should we disable email for now?

Nah, as long as you don't open the attachment you'll be fine.

Plus, the more e-mail they send, the more chances we have to find the source.

This is what stands out to me:

Received: from DRGRAY (c-67-163-22-205.client.comcast.net [67.163.22.205])

The info for that Pum ******* kept on tracing back to a Doctor's office.

Of course, you'll have to take into consideration that I'm one paranoid ****, I could step on a pile of **** right now and blame it on Pum.

How annoying. I was wondering why in the hell Skeet sent me a message from his Allakhazam email that said "this is a test". Luckily hotmail was on the ball and caught the exe (not that I would have opened it anyway).

If you're going to send out email to everyone with a virus, at least have the decency to write an interesting email. Sheesh.

I am getting this virus from "outsiders" now too, not just Premium members. Stupid viruses.../grumble. LOL..that sounds bad. Really, I do use protection.

What?? Change my name and now my avatar is screwed?

It's not Pum. Pum has been delt with. I haven't had one come through in a while now, so someone may have got it in a virus scan, or they may just be on dial up.

housecall.trendmicro.com will pick it up, so if you are one of those people that doesn't have a virus scanner (and probably has a router with the password "admin" too) go there and scan your computer.
