Detailed Description
|
There is no virus by this name. Instead, there is a hoax e-mail message with this name being passed around. The e-mail message looks like this:
Now Downloading EXE.EIDE Virus
Complete!
Sup, this is CryoDeth here, you may not know me, but I'm one of
AOL's biggest hackers, but not known so much for my hacking talents,
as I am for my email macro virus talents. That's right. As soon as
you opened this email, a virus was downloaded to your computer. This
virus can and WILL delete your entire hard drive, but can be stopped
by doing 2 things....
First, you must remove any knowledge to AOL's server that you opened
this mail, to do this, you must complete the following:
Send mail to: storage42406_b@hotmail.com
In the subject, put: EMAIL-DELETE
In the message box, put:
Encrypt/type = MIME/plain
Open(MIME-Message204b)
Remove(Your Screen Name Here)
Edit.Mailbox(Your Password Here)
Mailbox.Refresh
Close(MIME-Message204b)
Connection.End
THE VIRUS ISN'T GONE YET!!!!! This only delayed the virus from
kicking in for about a week. As it stands, your hard drive will be
completely erased in one week. THE SECOND thing you must do, is
forward this to ast least 50 people before that week is up. As long
as the virus is running in your system, it detects when you forward
this letter, and to how many people. Once the limit of 50 is
reached, it deletes itself off your hard drive, and off your
computer, and will no longer pose a threat to your system.
The only reason I am doing this, is to show everyone on AOL just who
is in charge here! I have done ALOT of work, and have gained little
or no respect. Well, it's now time to pay up, and this is how I will
get you to. >=)
Ignore this message. There is no such virus. |
