data.pif from intel@shrapnelgames.com????

[David E. Gervais]

I just got an e-mail from intel@shrapnelgames.com that had no subject heading and no message. All that the e-mail had was a data.pif attachment.

I'm not going to run or open this attachment unless I find out that it is not a virus. If it is I suspect that someone is trying to give a bad rep to shrapnelgames.

So whom should I notify about this e-mail?

Cheers!

Edit: my my my, a quick virus scan and I find that the data.pif contains the WORM MYDOOM.a virus.

yes indeed, I think someone is trying to give shrapnelgames a bad rep. I seriously doubt that they sent the virus, but I have no way to trace the e-mail so I unfortunately cannot help find the evil vile scumm that sent the e-mail.

Oh well, another virus that failed to pass my common sense protection scheme.

Cheers, again.
