I thought you might find this interesting. I plan to incorporate it into some awareness presentations as an example of mildly targeted social engineering: http://www.f-secure.com/weblog/archives/archive-012006.html#00000768 I seem to remember some other type of virus or fraud using a similar message in the past regarding campus vandalism. It was also interesting that it also tried exploiting Firefox. http://www.frsirt.com/exploits/20060101.mozilla_compareto.pm.php -- Gary Flynn Security Engineer James Madison University www.jmu.edu/computing/security
