Message-ID: <200403251146.i2PBkIX20964@netsys.com> From: andrew at dev.bigfishinternet.co.uk (Andrew Aris) Subject: E-mail virus free tags (Was: SHUT THE F**K UP) This has been something I've wondered about for a while, its a good idea for e-mails to carry some kind of "passed" tag from AV systems only if it actually means something. Which as just a plain text, easily duplicatable signature it doesn't in-fact as recent Netsky variants are busy proving its worse than not having it. So why don't the AV vendors use for example PGP to sign mails? Surely this would give the process some meaning? regards, Andrew > -----Original Message----- > From: full-disclosure-admin@...ts.netsys.com > [mailto:full-disclosure-admin@...ts.netsys.com] On Behalf Of > Valdis.Kletnieks@...edu > Sent: 24 March 2004 16:11 > To: democow8086@...mail.com > Cc: full-disclosure@...ts.netsys.com > Subject: Re: [Full-Disclosure] SHUT THE FUCK UP > > On Wed, 24 Mar 2004 03:14:21 CST, democow8086@...mail.com said: > > JESUS CHRIST SHUT THE FUCK UP YOU GODDAM MORONS > > > > --- > > Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free. > > Checked by AVG anti-virus system (http://www.grisoft.com). > > Version: 6.0.639 / Virus Database: 408 - Release Date: 3/22/2004 > > Hmm.. how many viruses have we seen now that add some variant > of a "certified Virus Free" tag?
