Hello, In a newsletter I received from Security Wire Digest on May 20, 2002 they have a link to a web site that when clicked attempts to download two Trojan programs, which were blocked on my machine by McAfee software which I have set to scan all download files. I sent a notice back to Security Wire, below, but have not received a response and I just clicked on the link again and it is still trying to download the Trojans. I just wanted to make others aware of this problem and also to ask if anyone else had problems with this organization. I am ready to unsubscribe to this newsletter unless I get a response from them. Do not click on the link unless you have your virus software set to scan all files that are downloaded.
Message to Security Wire: subject:RE: SECURITY WIRE DIGEST, VOL. 4, NO. 39, MAY 20, 2002 Security Wire personnel: Please note when I clicked on the link in your newsletter, "http://sec.greymagic.com/adv/gm004-ie"; the web site attempted to download two Trojan programs to my computer. The files were identified by McAfee as MIA2B4ff and MV8R26CG. Both were listed a variants or JS/Espolint-LocalCSS. I repeated this process twice with the same results.
