Default Virus Update- Is your name on the list?

I received a message today, in Portuguese no less, listing my email
address, and a number of others in this group, as having been
harvested by the W32/swenn@mm worm.

The list is not "all inclusive", meaning that you could still be
targeted even if your addy is not listed. I also know that some are
already invalid, or munged, but I am including the entire list that I
received. There are duplicates. I don't know why.

Be aware that this worm will not only target you, but will send virus
emails listing *you* as the sender. You may get irate mail, or
notices from your ISP, that you are sending virii, when you are not.
The smart ISP's filter for viruses. MANY (i.e. Earthlink), do not.

Also be aware that these addresses (your's and mine) can be
"re-harvested" from the worm, and used for other purposes, such as
sending SPAM, trojan viruses, and other nasty stuff. Your account may
also get hacked, as "they" now know the username, they only need to
hack the password.

I really dislike having to munge my address ("...FISH.net"), and it
get's my Irish up to surrender to these *ssholes, but some of you (me,
included) may wish to consider changing your email address, and
munging it. I'm still thinking about it. I will probably wait to see
if this situation "calms down". I am still receiving about 100
viruses a day, and earthlink bounces them after my account hits 10
megabyte.

I have edited this list, to change the "@" in the addresses to "-at-".
No sense in giving the SPAMbots any food.

Good luck:
