Nothing like viruses with bugs in them (Swen)

Seems like this virus/worm has a bug where it will occasionally send out 1 byte attachments rather than the correct worm payload. Since the virus is not truly attached it tends to pass through e-mail virus scanners. It's causing a fair amount of end user confusion today -- lots of 'why is your/my virus scanner not working?' questions. Mark Radabaugh Amplex (419) 720-3635
