Someone went to a lot of work to *slightly* change all the signatures recognized by the AV programs. It is a "loader" that goes out and grabs the rest of the payload from another host. BTW. did you notice that the date in the encoded ".zip" file is tommorow! Otherwise, it looks just like the fake "news" loaders of last month. I'm sure it will be caught by all of them in a day or two, but it is a very nice piece of work. Paul Shupak [EMAIL PROTECTED]
