This morning I received an email with either a subject line or sender name of "HAHAHA" (I forget exactly how many HAs). It contained a virus -- a "worm" -- called Hybris, which was contained in an attachment called "dwarf4u.exe". If you receive email like this, make sure you do not open it.
I'd like to find the motherfucker responsible for this and give him punishment to fit the crime.
Yes, that's right. I want him executed.
And I want to be there when they flip the switch, so I can point at him and laugh, and say, "HAHAHA!"
fresh-baked at 08:55 AMWhat's worse these days is that many viruses come to you from spoofed email addresses -- the virus actually morphs the email it's coming from into something else entirely.
We've had people at work receive mail from themselves, believe it or not. Fortunately we have excellent anti-viral software.
The scary new virus though is the newly-reported one that imbeds itself into jpegs. We're doomed with this one.

Offered by: Kelly on June 14, 2002 1:08 PMThat virus is a pain in the ass, it tried spamming us months ago, I blocked it at our firewall at work. I believe it came from sexyfun.net
Offered by: ThinBytes on June 14, 2002 11:55 AMMy suggestion of execution was a play on the fact that the file attachment was "exe".
But don't get me wrong. I'm all for torture too. Yeah. Public stoning is always my torture of choice. Or at least a good start.
Offered by: Jodi on June 14, 2002 9:08 AMIf you have him executed, his suffering will be over. I know some really neat ways we could torture him and he wouldn't die. Much better I think than summary execution.
