Same goes for NAI groupshield if you dont have the latest engine installed,
even if you have the lastest dats.

That really made my day.

Subject: [gb-users] Only a virus related concern


I apologize for this email!

I only send to this group as I feel most will appreciate the
notification. GTA, please allow this email through!

NOTE: Norton/Symantec SMTP Gateway (pre 3.0) and Corporate Edition
(client) pre 8.0 can allow the [EMAIL PROTECTED] virus through without any
notification.

Today, I verified that 3 separate networks had infected systems sending
out infected emails. They all had the versions in question running, WITH
LATEST DEFINITIONS! None were aware of the problem.

I have since confirmed via email and firewall logs that the emails
originated from those sources and aided their IT personnel to identify
and clean their systems.

If you are using these versions, please contact Symantec immediately and
I strongly urge you to update to the version 3.0 or better yet 3.1 of
the SMTP gateway product and at least 8.0 of the client product.

So far, those version have saved my hide.

In addition, the email "From" address is spoofing addresses and sending
to auto-responder accounts (email addresses that have auto response
messages setup) that further complicate matters.

Again, sorry for the intrusion, and yes - I already notified Symantec.
