The attachments are not being stripped by Hotmails mcafee either, so either there is a new strain, a servers been hacked or some one scaned the archives and is scamming email addresses/names at random combonations. Has any one looked at the extended header info in something like outlook express. To see what the true orgin might be. Also on the notion of file shareing I've heard that bear share is relitvely benign.

Jay has also been notified. Might be an idea to do a scan on your system. I'm using the Mac right now...and these files don't affect me. But anyone using Windows may want to check their system. -Ed- Shoreline Electronics The above is the reply to your message dated 9/30/02 9:15 PM > > yeah.....I've seen a couple emails with .SCR attachments today > also......including the one you mentioned. > > Norton didn't flinch. > > Jeff Stielau > Shoreline Electronics Repair > 125 Beech Tree Lane > Westbrook, CT 06498 > 860-399-1861 > 860-664-3535 (fax) > jstielau@xxxxxxxx > ----- Original Message ----- > From: "Ed Gaidies" <teltek2@xxxxxxxxxxxx> > To: "TechAssist" <techassist@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> > Cc: "Jay Knoll" <techassist@xxxxxxxxxx> > Sent: Monday, September 30, 2002 9:43 PM > Subject: [TechAssist] HTML and Attachments > > >> >> Anybody know why messages are coming in HTML with an attachment on >> TechAssist. >> Had one from Wayne Vannaman and another from jr.myers@xxxxxxxxxxxx >> I didn't question the one from Wayne, but never opened it. >> Jim...if you read this, did you attach a "bl hair_files.zip.scr " to your >> last e-mail..if not I believe "Houston we have a Problem". >> >> -Ed- >> >> ------------------------------------------ >> To REMOVE your email address, click here: >> http://www.tech-assist.org/unsubb.html >> To CHANGE your email address, click here: >> http://www.techassist.net/forms/change.html >> ------------------------------------------ >> ***NEW*** Tips Added Instantly!!!*** >> Submit Repair Tips here: >> http://www.tech-assist.org/secure/tip/ >> >> > > ------------------------------------------ > To REMOVE your email address, click here: > http://www.tech-assist.org/unsubb.html > To CHANGE your email address, click here: > http://www.techassist.net/forms/change.html > ------------------------------------------ > ***NEW*** Tips Added Instantly!!!*** > Submit Repair Tips here: > http://www.tech-assist.org/secure/tip/ ------------------------------------------ To REMOVE your email address, click here: http://www.tech-assist.org/unsubb.html To CHANGE your email address, click here: http://www.techassist.net/forms/change.html ------------------------------------------ ***NEW*** Tips Added Instantly!!!*** Submit Repair Tips here: http://www.tech-assist.org/secure/tip/ _________________________________________________________________ Send and receive Hotmail on your mobile device: http://mobile.msn.com ------------------------------------------ To REMOVE your email address, click here: http://www.tech-assist.org/unsubb.html To CHANGE your email address, click here: http://www.techassist.net/forms/change.html ------------------------------------------ ***NEW*** Tips Added Instantly!!!*** Submit Repair Tips here: http://www.tech-assist.org/secure/tip/ ------------------------------------------ To REMOVE your email address, click here: http://www.tech-assist.org/unsubb.html To CHANGE your email address, click here: http://www.techassist.net/forms/change.html ------------------------------------------ ***NEW*** Tips Added Instantly!!!*** Submit Repair Tips here: http://www.tech-assist.org/secure/tip/
