Virus from Baldrick?

[tweedledee]

Today I received an email from baldrick@dvdrhelp.com with an attachment. The body of the email said "Is that you?". I have not opened it yet, but suspect it is a virus. Check out your computer Baldrick.

headers in a email can be easly faked (return address) ... which is what this is .... though yes a virii ...

this has been reported many times in the past here...

I received a month ago an email like this from ....myself!

It is a server problem, a user cann't do something for it!
The situation with those email viruses are getting worst everyday... Soon, our PCs gonna attack us!

That most likely is a variant of the MyDoom worm that's spreading around ... do not open it... this worm WILL delete files from your computer! If you have opened it, or are concerned that it may already be on your computer click here http://vil.nai.com/vil/stinger/

Download Stinger to remove it.

I prefer to "shed some light" on it by asking Baldrick about it.
The email is already deleted.

I second that Baldrick,
Don't ya think it's about time to close the hole in that mail server j/k of course

Maybe Baldrick is just trying to 'thin the herd'. Actually someone is probably faking his address.

Here is more detail.

W32/Mydoom.f@mm, also known as Mydoom.f. Mydoom.f

Email address spoofed from infected computers address book.
Don't open the zip file.

That's no detail at all.

If you want to show some detail, cut and paste the header of the email. I don't recognize your email client, so I can tell you how to do it.....Rest assured though, this email didn't come from baldrick. It came from a computer that is infected with a virus and uses random names out of the that persons address book, and other places to send emails to and addressed from

i think he has to click on "message source" to get header - but i dont reconize that client either . maybe is a html pop client

I was thinking the same thing 8)

Heck spoofing email and news posts are really old...I'm surprised people still even believe the from field to begin with.

Here are the details you want. Sorry about the delay but "she who must be obeyed" was wanting a lift to the shops.

I recovered the email from the server and opened it (keeping my fingers crossed that my anti-virus would pick it up) and this is what it was.
