Subject: Can Someone Tell Me What This Is?

  Hi, actually i have another question of a similar ballpark, so i can't
really answer your question, but did a virustotal scan on it anyway (got
the url from a previous fd post) so as not to post "empty handed".
  What i noted is this: I've been receiving emails on a few accounts
eversince a couple of days.. Their subject is
Hey, somebody! --where "somebody" is the user part of the email. But no
virus, no attached files, no body, no content.
The resemblence is only that like in your case, this is an email that
probably has a purpose that we don't know about :-)
  An idea for my own case: somebody bought /made some forwards with many
domains, and they check to see who responds to these, in order to make a
nifty low bounce rate spam list. What do you think?

Domains that were specified for a "sender" in the emails:
Workpermit.com, snowcrest.com, aada.com, novellus.com. All i could find
in my trash so far :)

For your masturbation-capable virus:

Hi.  Got this in an email, have no idea if it is just some stupid
command line joke or if it does something I don't know about.  Attached,
.rar format Win32 .exe inside.  I have attached the source code.
Subject line, "Masturbation Tycoon". I am not a programmer at all, but
there seems to be nothing suspicious in the source code either.  Maybe I
missed something in my newbness? Ran it in a sandbox, didn't seem to do
anything odd.  AVG, AntiVir and Bitdefender all say nothing about it.  I
am paranoid however. Thanks for any input.
