i was going to say something also but saw 'ain't 24 hours old yet' and 'july 2001'. said .. oh..

It's not 1st April yet, but this worked

Old thread which lacks currency and relevance....

Outlook Express gives you the option to save attachment. That's what I did with the latest batch of virii/worms that got sent to me (not by Russ). I was curious to know what they were. I did change the saved file extension from ZIP, SCR or EXE to something that wouldn't automatically run if I accidently launched it. Highlighting the file to rename it still created a rather high pucker-factor.

I than scanned the file with my AV program. Most were something like {Moodown} worm.

At least the latest pests e-mails going around made me update my AV signature files. At first, the scans wouldn't detect what these latest wormy critters were ...

lol jafo , could've used that warning way back when I embarrassed meself! rotfl!

I will look out for this in my inbox. Thank you for posting this. I hope everyone who has gotten infected recovers all safely.
