Warning to NTL users

[karohemd]

I don't think you are that daft but who knows?
Got an email today from management@ntlworld.com warning me that my email account will be cancelled because of my "improper use". Attached is a zip which most likely contains a nasty virus.
Update: Got a similar one from noreply@ntlworld.com to my Cam account.
*shakes head*

Sounds like its the same virus i have been fighting at work. Its a form of the beagle.* virus. just don't open the attachment, if you do update your scanners and clean it off.

... or, indeed, read your mail on a Linux box. I find it works well for virus prevention ;)

There is always that route, yes.

My personal favorite was from yahoogroups.com, sent to the GL Tremere yahoogroups list, claiming that the account would be shut down for improper access, with the password SENT TO THE LIST.
