I keep getting all these e-mails headed "Reply to post 'Has anyone else been spam..." from some git called "SEAT Cupra.net Forums"sssstew said:i get spammed to death i want seatcupra.net to sort it.
thank you
Drives me MAD!
The spamming has nothing to do with SCN, well not directly.
There is another Sober virus string out there which was recorded last week, this is sent via MSn and Hotmail email addresses and is a direct attack on Microsoft.
The Sober virus uses your pc to send spam to various members of your address book or indeed your Outbox as a secondary disguise, whilst its primary objective is to send spam straight to the Microsoft email servers in a view to bringing these to a stand still.
Microsoft have recognised this and are acting upon it now, but you could go to www.symantec.com and download the fixes for all Sober string viruses and that will stop your machine from being hijacked.
Further more off the back of that, go and buy zonealarm from www.zonealarm.com - brilliant first defence software firewall that stops your machines from being hijacked. If your on ADSL then you could go buy a router, but zonealarm is much cheaper.
