[Freedos-devel] re: (OT) New mail worm = update your antivirus!!!
Hi Jim, well, Bagle, maybe! But our mail gateway has held back DOZENS of Netsky copies to me this week already. Because all those viruses use fake sender addresses it is virtually impossible to guess (from the IP) who is the actually infected person. If one - maybe even past - list member is infected, people who have posted to the list and are therefore known to that list member will get virus mail from each other (in reality from the one list member of course, but the fake sender addresses...). The only thing which helps is making everybody update their antivirus software. I think http://www.bitdefender.com/ and http://www.free-av.com/ are free for private use. Eric.

Would be good to read, but not available here :-( Of those many undocumented books series by A. Schulmann, only UndocDOS was available in Spain (under a bad translation, btw), but I would suggest that you check with Amazon. You may find some (if you are interested in others too). I don't know the status of UndocDOS there either... The FSF boycotts Amazon (http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/amazon.html) and I agree with them, so I won't follow your advice :) The more so as we don't have credit cards and can't buy electronically from abroad. So, if anyone has this (or Pat's) book and wants to sell it to me, you're welcome ;-) Thanks, Lucho --- SF.Net is sponsored by: Speed Start Your Linux Apps Now.

[Freedos-devel] (OT) New mail worm
At my work, some people have been nailed by this new mail worm, so I thought I'd send an email to the lists to let people know about it. See http://www.sarc.com/avcenter/venc/data/[EMAIL PROTECTED] Just to let you know, I do not make a habit of removing anyone from the FreeDOS lists unless they are very clearly spamming the lists or sending trolls/garbage (we've only had this happen once or twice - I think the last one was an ad to increase the size of a body part.) If there is a reason to drop anyone (they've gone on vacation, ...) and I need to send an email to let you know you've been dropped, the email will come from Jim Hall [EMAIL PROTECTED] and not any other address from SourceForge or FreeDOS.org. And I don't send attachments, so don't open them. Sorry for the OT cross-post, but I didn't want someone to get bitten by this because they thought they'd be dropped from the list otherwise. -jh -- _ This email message has been automatically encrypted using ROT-26. --- SF.Net is sponsored by: Speed Start Your Linux Apps Now.
