Hello,

 

You are receiving this message because an e-mail, which contained

your e-mail address as the return/reply-to address, was sent to

hahaha. Possible reasons you received this message are

as follows:

 

1) You sent an e-mail to hahaha to complain to or notify

this user about their SPAMMING, sending an e-mail with a virus,

sending an e-mail that has content that may not be appropriate for

minors and/or to remove yourself from a mailing list, etc.

 

2) Someone else sent an e-mail to hahaha and they are using

your e-mail address as their return/reply-to address. If this is the

case, we are sorry that this e-mail was sent to you. However, please

read it, as it contains information about the Virus we are trying to

stop from spreading across the Internet.

 

3) Your anti-virus software sent an e-mail back to hahaha to

inform them that the e-mail they sent contained a virus. Most

of the time, this e-mail is sent without your knowledge by the

anti-virus software itself.

 

4) Someone has d the e-mail address hahaha to a mailing

list to which you are also d. The program that sends this

message out tries to make sure that it is not responding to any e-mails

that it receives from a list server by checking the full e-mail headers

for list information. Some lists do not provide any keys in their full

e-mail headers that we can use to keep the our program from responding.

If you think this is the case, please contact your list admin and have

them remove hahaha from their member list.

 

 

This Spam, containing "Snowhite" in the Subject, is a Virus called

Hybris.gen. It sends out e-mail from your e-mail program with

attachments also infected with the virus, in an attempt to infect more

computers. This virus scans incoming and outgoing mail and http traffic

for e-mail addresses to send a copy of itself to. The e-mail the virus sends

 

out use a fake or spoofed "FROM:" address of hahaha to hide its

tracks.

 

We registered the domain http://www.sexyfun.net to provide you,

the Internet user, with information about this Virus, tips on how to

detect, clean and trace it, and how to protect your computer from it in

the future.

 

Here are some other facts that may answer questions you may already have:

 

1) We do NOT maintain any mailing lists on our system.

2) This user (hahaha) does NOT exist on our system.

3) The e-mail you got with the field of hahaha did NOT

come from sexyfun.net or the web hosting company’s network. This

e-mail address was FAKED or SPOOFED.

4) The e-mail you got is a way for the Hybris.gen Virus to spread

itself around the Internet just like the ILOVEYOU Virus that surfaced

a year ago.

5) The "Received:" line of the FULL e-mail header will tell you the IP or

Computer name of the person(s) that sent you the Virus. Most likely,

it came from someone you know who is unaware that his or her computer

is infected with the virus.

6) By visiting the domain http://www.sexyfun.net, you will find helpful

information about the Hybris.gen Virus and links to software you

can use to clean your computer if you are infected, as well as other

miscellaneous information.

7) We did NOT create the virus nor do we know the person(s) who created the

virus. We are NOT affiliated with this person or persons. The same

applies to our web hosting company.

 

NOTE: As long as you don't run/open/double click on the attachment

of the e-mail, this virus should not be able to infect you just by

reading the e-mail.
