Message-ID: <C2B26E14-544E-11D8-BDB5-000393D1722A@nonmundane.org> From: dspisak at nonmundane.org (Daniel Spisak) Subject: MyDoom.B -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Look, apparently this is not the list for me to be on. All I was trying to do at first was find B to analyze. Then I tried to provide it to people via email but that quickly escalated past what I could personally handle by myself. Then I gave the URL to the list and now we have this fine mess. McAfee was just trying to give me a friendly nudge that what I did was probably not the best method of distribution. So try to not harbor any ill will towards them, they were just trying to do their job. I overreacted and it would seem this situation would dearly like to spiral out of control. I never wished to drag people I know needlessly into a pissing match. Nor did I ever wish to intend to make this variant more active in the wild. If you are mirroring the files I had previously hosted please take them down from your sites and distribute them via email only if at all possible. Posting the virus to a URL on this list means it ends up on the web archive which means it shows up in Google which means any Tom, Dick, or Jane can download the live virus. So if you wish to help others email is the way I suggest. Anyways, I'm going to shut the hell up now for a while and hope that what sanity is left can prevail here. Daniel E.
