From: csnow at deltadentalwa.com (Snow, Corey) Subject: New W32.Gibe variant making the rounds? I just a little while ago was informed by my mail system admin that a message intended for me had been snagged by our mail filters as containing the W32_GibeA virus. Many of you probably remember that this was the little bugger that went around under the guise of a Microsoft Security update and had an attachment called Q216309.exe, which was actually a backdoor and massmailer with its own SMTP engine. Well, this one seemed to be a bit different. It had a return address of "pgp-key-request@...tmaster.org" and the subject line was "Introduction on ADSL". I've requested a copy of the original message. If and when I receive it, I'll forward any other relevant details along. I'm assuming that this is an attempt to tart up the original W32.Gibe virus and cause a new round of infections. Apologies if this is something that is already seen; I was concerned that a new social-engineering attempt using the old Gibe virus was being made.
