Subject: Re: [WHITNEY-L] Worm Virus Hit our List!!
Date: Sun, 29 Oct 2000 20:30:15 EST
Hello Folks,
There have been a couple of attempts to infect Rootsweb lately but Rootsweb
says it believes it has caught them. The Bell list is the only list that it
got through on, the worms are named KAK and pretty park. They only infect
Microsoft Outlook's address book all other e-mail programs are not affected.
It's odd that Jeanne was the only one that received it. Makes me think it
might have come from outside the list.
If you are using Outlook you should be careful to keep a good Anti-virus
loaded because almost all address book attacks take place against Outlook.
