Yeah it does matter. The message you got from SANS does not appear to
come
from this list. There is *no* message like that in my exchange public
folder
that is subscribed to the list. It has not been intercepted at my AV
mail
gateway.
This means 1 of 2 things
1) I can't read a public folder.
2) You don't actually know where the message you got came from.
I tend to go with 2) (funnily enough) and considering your knee-jerk
reaction to act like chicken little without proper checking of the
facts,
means the some of the 2000+ sys admins of this list may well of wasted
time
, just like I have , checking for a file that was supposed to of entered
their mail servers that was infected and never detected by their AV
product.
So before you waste our time again, sod off, do some research and get
your
facts right, don't waste our time.
Oh and congratulations you have made my killfile, no doubt I have made
yours
:-)

Does it matter? I was fairly busy between the readme.txt and the
W32.Nimda
to not worry about the specifics. If it came from SANS, that's where it
came
from. I'm sorry if that offends you but what can I do? Actually, since I
got
it off this list, why don't you analyze it and tell us what you find.

So you actually looked at the smtp source and saw that it actually had
the
attachment in the email and not just a fragment?

It's not a rumor, it's what happened. That this e-mail got to one of
their
people and propagated is disturbing. Antigen caught it at my GW and
didn't
send it anywhere. What's there excuse?

Careful before spreading such a rumor, the detecters may well be
oversensiitve at this point. McAffee did the same to me *because* a guy
had
posted to the mailing lust and email containing a portion of the
javascript. I would suggest considering the source of teh messaging
being
blocked, that it is like they the message was benign and they too had a
portion of code in it that set the alarm bells off.

Dean
