I have noticed over the course of the past few days, I have recieved over 200 emails, with the subjects:
hi, I have a new email address
Your password
smtp failed
Paris Hilton & Nicole Richie
Mail Delivery Failed
What do you guys think? I haven't opened them at all, they all contain attachments that are 75kb in size...
Yahoo autoshunts all of those into my Spam folder, they are indeed virii.
nah, i think you just go to too many pr0n sites
lol, I use my laptop for that...
I don't know, they just started appearing. My yahoo account's spam folder will rack up 460+ in under 3 days...
that explains why your laptop is always dead
i dunno... 75k... hmm... oh, i know what that might be... no, wait...
if it was 872k, i could definitely help you... that's a "movie.exe" file in a zip file... the icon for movie.exe is a windows media player logo, so if you dont have file extensions turned on it looks like a music video or something...
I am also starting to get it from people that are in my address book...
Has to be a virus...
guess so
speaking of small files...anyone else here played that first person shooter thats only 96kb?
Just for the record, those are probably spoofed - I've been getting "I've a new email address" from
autoresponder@ticalc.org .

Yeah, my school made an announcement warning people not to open it.
Wow, I am glad I didn't open it...
Hehe, yup, apparently all my friends freaked otu when they saw the subject line.
lol, well, when you have 50 of the same subject lines lookin at you, something has to look suspicious...
Well, not everyone is as intelligent as us.
Well, that is a given.

Or if you don't want to sound elitist, replace "intelligent" with "computer-proficient" (even though you know it's true ).
Good point.
Yeah...my mom got an e-mail a few days back from
Admin@fbi.gov saying that I view illegal sites, and my mom went nuts
Then I showed her the wonders of google searching...
