New virus

  • From: Andrew Fried

I just received an email proporting to be from Symantec that contained an anti-virus signature update. The message originated in the Netherlands. The attachment has been submitted to Symantec and FortiNet for review, however, I thought the community might want a heads up since I do not know the degree to which this has been distributed. The full content of the message I received is below:

Intruder Alert 4.1 W32_Webb_Worm Policy
This policy detects the propagation of the W32.SobigF.Worm through
changes in the registry.

[email protected] is a mass-mailing, network-aware worm that sends
itself to all the email addresses it finds in various files.
The worm uses its own SMTP engine to propagate and attempts
to create a copy of itself on accessible network shares, but
fails due to bugs in the code.
