approved.pif?
I got an Email today form "support@microsoft.com" and The subject line is Approved (Ref: 38446-263)... BUt I've had no dealings with Microshaft, and they said all the info I needed was in a file called approved.pif..<br><br>NM... Just fiunished a virus scan, and the file is a worm. Do not open it. Delete it ASAP. <p><!--EZCODE CENTER START--><div style="text-align:center"><!--EZCODE FONT START--><span style="color:red;font-family:arial;font-size:xx-large;"><!--EZCODE BOLD START--><strong>I HATE EZBOARD!!!</strong><!--EZCODE BOLD END--></span><!--EZCODE FONT END--></div><!--EZCODE CENTER END--></p><i></i>

Re: approved.pif?
I dunno where the names are coming from, but I don't like it... I deleted the Email, otherwise I'd check to see which account it came from. <p><!--EZCODE CENTER START--><div style="text-align:center"><!--EZCODE FONT START--><span style="color:red;font-family:arial;font-size:xx-large;"><!--EZCODE BOLD START--><strong>I HATE EZBOARD!!!</strong><!--EZCODE BOLD END--></span><!--EZCODE FONT END--></div><!--EZCODE CENTER END--></p><i></i>

Re: approved.pif?
Recently, my school account (I have an alumni account) has been getting similar things from some mail servers in eastern Europe. That's all that the school's computer guys/gals could tell.<br><br><!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :( --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons/frown.gif ALT=":("><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> <br><br> <p></p><i>Edited by: <A HREF=http://pub141.ezboard.com/bxmenclan.sho ... andtm>XMEN Ashaman DTM</A> <IMG SRC="http://theta_mercenaries.homestead.com/files/xmen.gif" BORDER=0> at: 5/21/03 1:29:47 am<br></i>

Re: approved.pif?
Glad I paid attetion, and scanned the file first. NO telling what it could have done. Just an FYI for the rest of the folks to be aware. <p><!--EZCODE CENTER START--><div style="text-align:center"><!--EZCODE FONT START--><span style="color:red;font-family:arial;font-size:xx-large;"><!--EZCODE BOLD START--><strong>I HATE EZBOARD!!!</strong><!--EZCODE BOLD END--></span><!--EZCODE FONT END--></div><!--EZCODE CENTER END--></p><i></i>

Re: approved.pif?
Then someone on the THZclan mailing list must have gotten this worm. We all have THZclan accounts..... This is very strange. <p><!--EZCODE CENTER START--><div style="text-align:center"><!--EZCODE FONT START--><span style="color:red;font-family:arial;font-size:xx-large;"><!--EZCODE BOLD START--><strong>I HATE EZBOARD!!!</strong><!--EZCODE BOLD END--></span><!--EZCODE FONT END--></div><!--EZCODE CENTER END--></p><i></i>
Re: approved.pif?
It is probably mass mailing the hosts mail server. I doub't it is anyone on the thz mailing list. I would bet that everyone who has an account on CI Host is getting them. <p><div align="left"><hr color="#daae52"><a href="http://www.thzclan.com/gryphav.gif/sigs.php" target="_blank"><img border="0" src="http://www.thzclan.com/gryphav.gif"></a> <a href="http://www.thzclan.com/cam" target="_blank"><img src="http://www.thzclan.com/cam/gryphon/thb_ccam.jpg" border="0"></a><br><font size="1"><b><a href="http://www.thzclan.com/tcdb" target="_blank">Tribes Clan DB</a> - List your Tribes1/2 Clan, Guild, Fansite, League, or Script site<br><a href="http://www.thzclan.com/snooknet" target="_blank">SnookNet Web Design</a> - My web building adventures<br><a href="http://www.ryanaaron.com/dtm" target="_blank">Dragon Talon Mercenaries</a> - Online Gaming Guild<br><a href="http://www.planettribes.com" target="_blank">PlanetTribes</a> - Sp3ci@l pr0jekts<br><a href="http://www.3dactionplanet.com/planetside" target="_blank">PlanetSide Shuttle</a> - Newsie extraordinaire<br><a href="http://www.thzclan.com/hosted/planetside" target="_blank">Allied Tribal Forces</a> - A PlanetSide alliance started by Tribesplayers</font></b><hr color="#daae52"></div></p><i></i>
