BIG SIGH - ANOTHER VIRUS - SERIOUS
 

New! Win32/South Park.Worm

SouthPark is a new e-mail worm that spreads under Windows 95, Windows 98, Windows NT 4.0 and Windows 2000 through Microsoft Outlook. Unlike the VBS_LoveLetter worm, South Park does not require Windows Scripting Host.

The message that it sends will be as follows (in German):

Subject: Servus Alter!
Body: Hier ist das Spiel, das du unbedingt wolltest!;-)
Attachment: South Park.exe

English translation:

Subject: Hey Dude!
Body: Here is the game you were desperately looking for!
Attachment: South Park.exe

DO NOT OPEN ATTACHMENT: Users should delete all messages from both the Inbox and Deleted items folder possessing any of the attributes shown in the above description.

I think it's the same as the one described here that dates back to February, just a slightly different e-mail message.

Voidhawk, you don't think we're really stupid enough to click on that hyperlink, do you?

Oh no, nothing like that.

The link is a search result on an .asp site, that's all. If you don't believe me visit http://vil.nai.com/ and search for any viruses with park in the name.

Now I must dash back to my next lecture at Manilla University.
(Just kidding)
