Detailed Description

Here is the original text of the warning:
Subject: Email Bomb Warning
We have received several notices of a new email virus called
"y2kstat.exe".
This is not a hoax. If you receive a mail message with the
"y2kstat.exe" program, do not run the program. DELETE THE MAIL
MESSAGE.
This program destroys systems files that are required to boot
the machine.
We are currently filtering email messages for this virus in
hopes of preventing any destruction.
Ignore this message and do not pass it on. If you ever receive the attachment with this name please send it to F-Secure for analysis. |
