To: Seafood Listserv Subscribers
Fr: Pamela Tom, Listserv Co-owner
Everytime a nonsubscriber sends a message to the seafood listserv, I
receive an error message. One of today's messages raised my eyebrows and
prompted me to consult with our UC Davis Postmaster.
One of our subscribers' computers has the worm, "Snow White and the Seven
Dwarves." His or her machine sent a message to the listserv this morning,
but it has *BEEN BLOCKED* because the e-mail return address is not
recognized as a subscriber.
A description of this worm and attachment name is defined on the Symantec
website
at: http://service1.symantec.com/sarc/sarc.nsf/html/W95.Hybris.gen.html
I strongly recommend that you install virus protection software and
routinely update it to guard against worms and viruses from *ANY* e-mail
sources. If you haven't recently checked your system for viruses
recently, it would be a good idea to do so.
A sample of what the message looks like is attached. I have deleted the
attachment so the contents of the message below is safe (though a bit
unsavory).

Hello Pam,
