watch out ppl.
i just had 2 separate viruses e-mailed to my new hotmail e-mail address
i only opened the dam attackments because hotmail says it scanned the attackment b4 i opened t with MCAFEE virus scanner. hot mail said the attachment was clean but as soon as i opened it, norton antivirus auto protection wirled into action saying that i had been infected with a virus, its all cleaned up of my comp now but just to warn you.
Date: 04/08/02, Time: 00:06:22, HP Authorized Customer on PAVILION
The file
C:\WINDOWS\Temporary Internet Files\Content.IE5\8S030H1S\cristo2002[1].cpl
is infected with the W32.Kitro.C.Worm virus.

Like ALL e-mail DON'T open unless you are sure that it is ok. The other day I was sent some e-mail by a fellow villun. I did not open until I was able to get in contact with him via pm. Indeed he had NOT sent it. I am not in his address book nor have we ever sent e-mail to each other. So why did I get it, hell I don't know.
The subject was "A New Website"
The body read: Hello this is my new website. I expect you would enjoy it.
It had two attachments with it:
1: Avftr.bat (87.2 KB)
2: ATT00004.txt (32.4 KB)
Moral of story is to be CAREFUL and check BEFORE the magic click. _________________

i only opened them because hotmail said that it had scanned them with a virus scanner powered by MCAFEE.. and that the attackments were clean.
but as soon as i opened them my virus scanner (norton 2002 fully updated) detected the virus and killed it _________________
