[b][SIZE=2]<span style="font-family:arial">Just recieved a security warning from Symantec regarding a variant of a worm that is currently making the rounds and felt i should pass word on to the members here to give everyone a heads-up. W32.HLLW.Lovgate.C@mm is a variant of W32.HLLW.Lovgate@mm. This worm contains mass-mailing and backdoor functionality. There are no major functionality differences between this variant and W32.HLLW.Lovgate@mm. This variant appears to have been re-compiled with a different compiler, and then packed with the same runtime compression utility as W32.HLLW.Lovgate@mm. To replicate, W32.HLLW.Lovgate.C@mm creates its own emails, adds infected attachments to each email, and then emails each infected message. The email message is one of the following: Subject: Documents Attachment: Docs.exe Body: Send me your comments... Subject: Roms Attachment: Roms.exe Body: Test this ROM! IT ROCKS!. Subject: Pr0n! Attachment: Sex.exe Body: Adult content!!! Use with parental advisory. Subject: Evaluation copy Attachment: Setup.exe Body: Test it 30 days for free. Subject: Help Attachment: Source.exe Body: I'm going crazy... please try to find the bug! Subject: Beta Attachment: _SetupB.exe Body: Send reply if you want to be official beta tester. Subject: Do not release Attachment: Pack.exe Body: This is the pack ;) Subject: Last Update Attachment: LUPdate.exe Body: This is the last cumulative update. Subject: The patch Attachment: Patch.exe Body: I think all will work fine. Subject: Cracks! Attachment: CrkList.exe Body: Check our list and mail your requests! If you see any of these,do not open the e-mail-delete it.Those of us that use Norton Antivirus,the virus definitions from Feb. 24 onwards will protect from this-I would advise users of other antivirus programs to check the respective web sites and get your latest virus definitions.If any of you don't yet have antivirus protection,GET SOME!![/b]</span>[/SIZE]
