Message-ID: <NHBBKOKFNKAIECDLOKDCEELHEJAA.alerta@redsegura.com> From: alerta at redsegura.com (Alerta Redsegura) Subject: viruses being sent to this list Gady Evron said: >...but as I am the latest victim of the latest spreading >mechanism for viruses - Full-Disclosure,... The worm sent in your name is I-Worm.Bagle.n (W32/Bagle.N@mm), it takes its email addresses from files with the following extensions: .wab, .txt, .msg, .htm, .shtm, .stm, .xml, .dbx, .mbx, .mdx, .eml, .nch, .mmf, .ods, .cfg, .asp, .php, .wsh, .adb, .tbb, .sht, .xls, .oft, .uin, .cgi, .mht, .dhtm, .jsp So it is very likely that your email address was picked up automatically by the worm on the infected machine, with no human intervention whatsoever. This aside, I understand this list is directed to people with a knowledge/background/experience in computer security, such that a .pif attachment whether gets filtered before their email client or otherwise they are clever enough not to open it.
