| 10/13/2006 | Truman experienced a flood of email messages this morning that contained a suspicious attachment. The message indicates that it is regarding a recent online order from Dell or BestBuy. The message contains a .zip attachment which includes an .exe file. Do not open the attachment or execute the file within the zip folder as it appears to contain a possible downloader/trojan file. As this appears to be a new threat, most antivirus companies do not yet have software to detect this file. We are working with our antivirus vendors to obtain updated DATs that should properly detect the files. As always, do not open any attachments unless you are expecting them. If you believe you may have opened the attachment and executed the file, please contact the Help Desk at x4544 for assistance. |
