9/11 Worm Can't Squirm

internetnews.com
By Michael Chait

The worm, which is called "Chet" and was discovered on September 10th, tries
to spread via an attachment file called 11september.exe. When this file is
executed, the worm will attempt to send an e-mail to each address found from
the Windows address book. The e-mail would always have "mail@xxxxxxxxx" as
the sender and "All people!!" as the subject.
