| 143662 | 2003-05-13 06:11:00 | Symantec Security Response is tracking a mass-mailing worm W32.HLLW.Fizzer@mm. The worm sends itself to all contacts in the Windows Address Book and contains a backdoor that uses mIRC to communicate with a remote attacker. The worm also contains a keylogger that keeps track of keystrokes on a users system. Symantec Security Response has rated the virus a level 3 on a scale of 1-5, with 5 being the most serious. The threat was upgraded today due to the number of submissions received by Security Response. For further information on this worm, or to run a free Security Check to determine your computer's exposure to online security intrusions and virus threats, such as the "Fizzer Worm" visit: www.symantec.com.au Cheers Billy 8-{) |
