[mechmike0034]

If any of you are getting spammed in German with messages
containing links to German websites, here's why:

Pretty ugly stuff...

looks like someone changed it a little bit Sober.U (or Netsky.U) was just released last night, now they are coming from india and germany.

Damnit, I thought I just got a very angry new German pen-pal. Thanks for ruining my day.

I took care of much of it by adding filters for the words: "Lese" and/or ".de" (since I dont recieve email from anyone w/ a .de extension) and I dont know any words that would conflict with Lese. Who knows.. maybe I'll trash important stuff by doing it, though it cant be worse than the universities filters.... which... tend to delete/filter emails from my professors. > |

anyways, it helped me clean up all the crap fairly quickly, now I just need to figure out how to get rid of the other **** that occured while I was outta the state this weekend... Came back, 57 IE windows were up, and I didnt leave anything open, just the desktop. ugghh, finally got the comp up and most of the crap dealt with

It's good to see that the people in my company weren't the only ones.

I have about 6 of those titled e-mails so far. I'm going to give it a few more days until I can collect enough of the repeats so I know what words to filter. Can't filter "whore" cause that would get rid of some authentic ones

Where do I use these lines? Outlook or my internet mail browser?

They're from a spam firewall appliance, but I would think entering them into Outlook as rules would work.
