***Different providers all had different "explosion" rates of this,
apparently. I got the first series (probably 30 or so) on Hotmail,
then followed by RCN. My CompuServe account came later, maybe about
a week. I guess there were about 20-30 there too...

nada here ::BiG GRiNNie::
that is one advantage to old hardware and software (early PowerMac OS 9 -
160 Mhz! - runnin' AOL 5.0 or OpenSesame2000 (an Opera-like
browser/FTP-hack)!!!)... they don't even download the current batch of viruses easily - if at
all...
but totally sucks that I can't run SCALA or any relatively current
softsynth'ware.

Now I'm up to 95 hits. Norton Anti-Virus has a report that
I can get counts from. Mozilla has a great junk mail filter,
once I tag email as junk, Mozilla takes care of it.

Yes, Mozilla's taking care of them, but it has to download them first. There's talk on comp.lang.python about deleting them through the POP3 library, based only on the headers -- which I could have worked out myself. Anyway, here are some details:

Looks like a Worm.Automat.AGH attack. I've had three hundred e-mail
messages in the last 24 hours produced by this verminous thing, and it can
also post infected messages to usenet newsgroups. One type post is in HTML
and looks like a legitimate Microsoft Security warning, but the payload is
an infected attachment. The other type message is a fake 'Undeliverable
mail' with fake, infected attachment pretending to be the original message.
This is going to be big. Symantec/Norton Antivirus 'Live Update'
definitions prior to 19SEP03 don't catch it, though Microsoft Outlook with
SP3 does protect against this sort of attack. As of now, Norton Antivirus
DOES NOT detect this worm in newsgroups, though it will protect if the
attachment is opened or saved to disk. It DOES NOT, however, deleted the
infected post from your downloaded posts until you do a virus scan of your
system.

Question for the virus-smart people:

for example:

So how is it that my wife and myself haven't been getting hit at all by these? My ISP is OK, but I don't know that they are so completely hip that they are filtering it all out. We don't use any M$ apps for email, so I don't worry about auto-run type attacks (and my wife has learned to not open attachments), but it still doesn't really explain why I just haven't even seen these. I think we've only gotten a couple of potential virii in the last few months.

Dumb luck? Never emailed the 'wrong' type people in the past? Any ideas??

Cheers,
Jon

I'm on a lot of email lists and have posted to usenet in the past.

Make that 121 hits.

I never had much trouble with the previous worms. This time, 301 e-mails in about 20 hours.

My ISP has some kind of spam filtering, and I don't have M$ anything with access to my network card.

Like I said before, these all seem (in that I haven't checked them all;) to be sent to the address I use for Usenet. I think that's the key.
