Gentlemen, I am going to cut and paste information here so you can know where to place the blame. "The worm mails itself to email addresses in the Windows Address Book, and to addresses extracted from files on the victim's machine. It arrives in an email message whose subject and body is composed from a pool of strings carried within the virus (the virus can also add other strings obtained from the local machine). " "Thanks to the use of the exploit described above, simply opening or previewing the message in a vulnerable mail client can result in an infection of the victim's machine. " "Klez.E is the most common world-wide spreading worm. It's very dangerous by corrupting your files. Because of its very smart stealth and anti-anti-virus technic,most common AV software can't detect or clean it.We developed this free immunity tool to defeat the malicious virus. You only need to run this tool once,and then Klez will never come into your PC." * I think this last one was a testimonial from someone who got the virus. The grammar isn't quite right. This information was found at http://vil.mcafee.com/dispVirus.asp?virus_k=99455 Yes...I got a virus too, yes...I was mad at who "I thought" sent it. It turn out that this person (my sister) has not even had a computer for the last 6 months! Go figure... The virus took the information from my own computer and tried to place the blame on her, so I have no idea where it came from. I have checked several times with several different programs and I am clean now...Thank God! I couldn't even send an e-mail for a while because my server would reject everything from me. I have good virus protection now. What does it all mean? It means slow down and do some research before you name names and place blame publicly. Remember, it's the virus designers who are to blame, not your friends and colleagues. Dave Streit, RPT Portland, OR
