This new Mimail variant looks nasty - does anyone know if the following information is true ? and, if so, presumably we need more than just a pattern update to catch this one!
Thanks, Andy ; The most important modification in Mimail.q are the polymorphic ; encryption keys inbuilt to fool anti-virus programs. Every time the ; infected machine is restarted Mimail.q changes the encryption key so ; that the copies of itself that Mimail sends look different every ; time. ; This means that anti-virus programs must have a decryption routine in ; order to contend with Mimail.q successfully. ------------------------------------------------------- The SF.Net email is sponsored by EclipseCon 2004 Premiere Conference on Open Tools Development and Integration See the breadth of Eclipse activity.
