2 days ago i got 4 of these in spanish, i think it was weird so i didnt open it. Today i got one in english from memnoch, the file name was SexDiary.doc.bat so i thought it was something funny that he wanted to send me, and as i had seen the virus only in spanish i didnt realize that the words were the same as in the old messages so ive opened it http://www.tgeweb.com/cgi-bin/ubb/no...iles/frown.gif. Im gonna install my antivirus now to see what can i do.

NOTE: when hotmail checked the file for viruses he didnt find any, Bill Gates TM http://www.tgeweb.com/cgi-bin/ubb/noncgi/smiles/mad.gif

Yep, I just got an email from 'you' (The virus, not you personally) in my INBOX. http://www.tgeweb.com/cgi-bin/ubb/no...iles/smile.gif. Clean it quick, and email everyone in your address book NOT to open they other one.

Dan! I was just about to post this and warn people... it can also be called W95/Sircam...etc and I had the distinct displeasure of opening my hotmail from him and infecting my office pc! (Sorry Memsy, not your fault!http://www.tgeweb.com/cgi-bin/ubb/no...iles/smile.gif )

My tech support removed the payload but the damage was done, somehow my windows won't boot up and they may have to wipe my hd. Sigh....oh and fyi the file was pure porn and I knew at once that Memsy hadn't sent it to me, but it was too late. File name was file4.doc. (souns harmless, doesn't it? http://www.tgeweb.com/cgi-bin/ubb/no...les/tongue.gif) These are random so yours may be different.

Everyone, please note that it came to my HOTMAIL acct and you should NOT open any attachments in mail from Mario (or me, now!)in your hotmail accounts. (or any html attachments period!)

What a way to start my vacation...sigh
