HELP with Sobig virus... PLEASE!
 

Ok, I haven't got the virus.

But I'm still getting a shit load of emails. Norton anti virus 2003 is stopping and deleting them but they are STILL dropping in my inbox and require a manual delete...

Using outlook express, how the fuck do I get it to drop them in the deleted folder instead of the inbox?

Please, no BS answers... I know there are a million threads about this all over but I still haven't found an answer. :helpme

who's your host?

Am I gonna have to offer a bribe to get the solution?

It's pissing me off that much I'm seriously considering it...

In Outlook Express go to Tools > Message Rules > Email

Mail Rules > New
Select "Where the Subject line contains specific words"
AND
"Delete it"

click the underlined "Specific words" in the rule descriptions filed and add:
'Thank you!' or 'That movie' or 'Details' or 'Approved' 'Your application' or 'Wicked screensaver'

"MessageLabs researchers believe that there is a link between the Sobig author and the spamming community and that machines that are compromised by Sobig are being used as distribution stations for spam e-mail, Sunner said. "

Whoever the fucking programmer of sobig is, if I ever find him, I'm gonna fuck him in the ass with a 12 by 8 black veiny strap on till the fucker bleeds from his fucking skull the shitty arsed wank stain!

FUCK YOU SOBIG FUCKER!!! FUCK YOU LONG TIME SAILOR BOY!!!


ARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHH... I've NEVER been so pissed off or this stressed in my whole internet fucking career!!!

FUCK SOBIG! MOFUCKER!!!


DIE SLOW MOFUCKER, MY FO FO MAKE SURE ALL YO KIDS DONT GROW!

Download Mailwasher. You can delete the virus' off your mail server before you download them with Outlook.

Yeah, I tried that steve, for some reason they still drop in! :(

I'll try again!

Ok, I'll get it... I just don't wanna lose any REAL emails... I'll try anything now...


If I aint sorted by tomorrow, I'm gonna kill myself live on webcam for all you guys.

Your application to our TGP was approved. You are now a partner. :Graucho

NAV 2003 works well for me. Go to Options, then select Email, and make sure that "Repair then silently delete if unsuccessful" is selected :thumbsup

Yeah done that, it still drops em in my inbox though :(

LOL

never thought of that, since I own TGPs and already have partner accounts at good ones (like Shemp hahaha haretz)

Is there a way to have outlook detect .pif attachments and just auto delete them before downloading?

I'm confused why isn't your host deleting these messages for you. We don't allow these messages to reach customers on our servers we send that shit back to the fucker with the following:

This message has been rejected because it has
a potentially executable attachment "your_details.pif"
This form of attachment has been used by
recent viruses or other malware.
If you meant to send this file then please
package it up as a zip file and resend it.

Turn your machine off and have a beer! Things will be better tomorrow!

:thumbsup

HINT for the clueless: those return headers are faked...

in outlook express

click Message

then Block Sender


that should be anything from that sender in the delete folder.

hope I helped

You should just redirect the emails with attachement in another folder. And u can just look at the emails you want to open or not .

i just asked candid to block the ip that it was coming from
to my shock they actually did it :thumbsup

problem solved no more emails since then :)

thanks candid for a response under 48hrs :)

When will this fucking flood of 1000 virus emails a day stop. No wonder why thehun changed his contact page to a form instead of listing his email long ago. He must have been getting 100,000 email viruses a day.

I've had that problem too but I'm gettin pissed cus every time, even though they land in the deleted items folder the stupid new mail indicator comes up ... how the hell do I stop that?

just tell your mail client not to download stuff > 50k but to delete it. Problem solved.
