Virus Advisory PLEASE READ

[Captain Kwok]

I haven't sent out any e-mails for a few weeks, nor do I have an address book - so it must have been faked!

In the Last few weeks I've been running daily scans for viruses, and have none to report.

So Big actually does more than just address books. It will look for e-mail addresses in text files, Word Documents, HTML content (including temporary internet files, where you are almost certain to have Atrocities address, along with a few score of other people), and some other source I can't remember.

not to worry I got one from myself

But it was not from me

I just found my 50+ of these beautiful trojans. Almost erased a PBW turn that was among them.
Yep, it must be someone from the SE4 community because many of the aparent senders were se4 players and even MM's info email.

Not only I got one from myself, I got one from my old email andreslescano@mad.scientist.com and that adress hasn't worked for years. It must be someone who has an old adress box.

Please check you computers. My inbox is small and I may not be able to get some of my mail if its full of this trash!

Okay, once again with the "senders can be faked" message.

Sorry, I haven't received 1 of these emails.
If you can get the IP address of where the email came from, you should be able to tell the domain name of the infected PC.

Yes, I know that senders are faked. But those faked adresses don't come out of nowhere.
If someone has many SE4 related adresses, including some old ones in his adressbook or somewhere else in his hard drive, he must be a long time SE4 player.
I guess there must be more than just 1 person infected, I heard that these viruses spread really fast and I doubt that I can be getting so many mails from only one person.

Edit: finding out someone's IP is beyond my internet knowledge
