Subject: Anybody getting Spoofed here?
IP: Logged

Message:
Another member and myself has determined that we have both been getting spoofed thru our email addys being sent out to unknown users and having viruses attached. We did not send these emials and do not have the viruses per se, but either someone here that has emailed us both (hotrodsrj@aolcom and Jason.Fitzgerald@Nypro.com) or the server is acting as our spoofer computer and transmitter?

Anyone else have this problem with emails being sent back to your addy undeliverable or detected with a virus? Commonly you will see the use of the "MAILER-DAEMON" OR Postmaster@server etc.

YES! Its been going on to me for the past week! I get 5 to 8 email "returns" everyday with the description that my mail couldn't be delivered to someone because it has a virus. I don't even know the email addresses that my computer is sending them to! I virus scanned and managed to find over 20 corrupted files and the virus itself! Its called the SOBIG virus and it is a god damn bitch to remove. Load up your virus scanner program and get it off your system if you can! I still am having problems with mine.

Same here. At least 5 a day. Sounds like Mr. Sleepy is one of the culprits. I'm sure there are more. If you surf the net, you've gotta have a good virus program, and constantly update the virus definitions.

I have been getting it to. I know I do not have the virus but it is clear that it is a Dakota member on some board. I am thinking someone east caost maybe North Carolina just from some of the addy's I have been getting.

I could post all of the people I am getting them from.

Here is what the virus is I believe.

W32.Sobig.F@mm is a mass-mailing, network-aware worm that sends itself to all the email addresses it finds in certain files on your PC. If you receive a message with an attachment with a .pif or .scr extension, we strongly suggest you scan it before downloading. The message may appear to be from someone you know.

Anyone know how to stop getting the messages? I have blocked a lot and it has slowed.

As a network flunky by day-- I can tell you, if you are running Windows 2000-- you MUST have SP4 on then the patch to block future RPC attacks. After you put on the SP4, then the RPC patch, then the cleaners.

The address that is sending the messages that I get on my machine is usually 24.169.215.73. I am not sure who or where that one is, but I am getting LOTS of the Sobig from that address spoofed as someone else.

Hey guys, don't feel bad.. I have been logging the ones that I get. In the past 23 hours and 40 minutes I got 558 of them. Its the sobig virus and how they work is that they are sent out from the infected computer to members of the address book on that comptuer. They are made to look like they come from another member of the address book on that same computer. Since people on this board email eachother and have eachother saved in their address book, they are appearing to come from everyone here.

That doesn't quite add up, since I don't have any of you listed in my address book, and none of the returned emails have addresses that I have ever heard of. For instance, library@dod.gov.... who in the world is that? See what I mean?

Department of Defense. The libarary part can be taken from somewhere else. Some viruses mix and match while some are just arbitrary. With so many IT professionals unemployed, this is what they do with thier time. I don't think that sobig was started that way. It was a useful program (to someone) that just got out of hand.. or so I hear. I also have been getting two mutations of the virus. One says "Please see the attached file for details." and the other says "See the attached file for details" with no period at the end. You can probably set mail rules in outlook to just dump antying wtih that in teh body to the deleted folder adn you'll never see them again.
