Just started receiving these as are others in the company...
essentially an email saying the acct has been compromised,
or email has bounced, or whatever.
Included are the usual attachments, doubly zipped files,
hidden pifs, scr or com programs on the inside.
they must have some new method of bypassing the
email filters that many isps have installed.
as always, if you are not expecting someone to send
you something, don't click on it or open them.
i hope that this does not shut down the internet - again...

try searching for something. when you hit the site you get one set of
servers that spit out a front page. when you actually search for something
you will get the error message. now pass over your crack pipe... :P

I started using Nortons Internet Security 2004 and it automatically puts those emails in to a spam folder and deletes them. So I never have to look at them.

I've been getting those for a few weeks now. Also our company has been getting spammed with random german verbage at various emails with our domain. The catchall address was overloaded. Extremely annoying.
