Hi all,
I have received a peculiar email from Jonathan Lewis the subject of which is 'Lets be friends'. Attached was 'message.htm', 'its.bat' and 'dbms_job.html'.
The last one is harmless and appears to be one of Connor's FAQ answers. Its.bat is actually an exe file and I suspect is the payload. Message.htm is a simple <IFRAME> tag with a funny source which I think sets off the payload.
Hopefully I'm wrong and Jonathan is not responsible for it, but it did come from his address. I have replied advising him of the problem and hopefully, he won't mind this posting. (Apologies in advance if not !)
If you get a message with the subject 'Lets be friends' I'd treat it with the utmost suspicion.
Regards,
Norman Dunbar (at home)
