[ClubMed]

Hope this isnt a re-post..

A new virus in 2 versions (Frethem.K and Frethem.L) has been discovered in Japan, it spreads using the address book in many e-mail programs and blocks numerous antiviral programs.

The subject is always: "Re: Your password!"

Yikes! Looks Ken and I had better watch ourselves.

Also, this might be better suited for the General Tech forum.

Thanks for the head up. Haven't seen or heard it yet, but it will soon strike here in Europe.

I will send out a warning to my friends. Its getting a weekly email lately

Oops! I think I opened one last night! Better update my NAV tonight and see what it finds!!

Came from a French addy BTW Dutch, so it's already over there...

Thanks Club

Cheers
Mick

edit: seems I didn't infect myself. I think I might have opened it from a webmail instead of Outlook Express. Remind me never to open unsolicited attachments again...
