Hey, if you’re the bastard who’s been sending out buttloads of virus-laden emails tonight, that claim to be “security updates from Microsoft”…GO SCREW YOURSELF! GO INFECT YOURSELF WITH SOME NASTY VIRUS THAT CAUSES YOUR NEEDLE-SIZED WIENER TO SHRIVEL UP AND FALL OFF! NOT THAT YOU EVER WILL USE IT ANYWAY, BECAUSE YOU’RE PROBABLY SOME BUTT-UGLY SON OF A BITCH WHO SITS IN HIS ROACH-INFESTED BASEMENT APARTMENT ALL DAY AND SENDS OUT THIS SHIT TO RUIN OTHER PEOPLE’S LIVES! YOU’RE A PATHETIC EXCUSE FOR A HUMAN BEING AND A ROACH IS A PRINCE COMPARED TO YOU, YOU SHIT! :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad:
Well if that’s really how you feel i guess i’ll stop.
I hope you’re system escaped serious damage, SweetLucy. I’ve gotten about a dozen of them in my work e-mail in the last couple of days. Fortunately for me, the security software sniffed out the virus immediately upon opening the first one, and trapped it.
Now I just trash them all, just like the press releases that come from Marketing.
Security updates from Microsoft come when that little icon appears in the bar on the bottom of the screen. You click on the little icon and it tells you what they got updates for. That’s all I ever need to know about those (excepting the everlasting watchfulness I keep to make sure none of the updates smell like that evil Palladium.)
I don’t know how anyone would think that a .dll or .exe file attached to an email is somehow an update from Microsoft. Frankly, I don’t know why anybody would open any such file attached to an email. So how could such a virus spread at all?
RexDart: Because people are stupid. Mindmeltingly, mouth-breathingly, ball-scratchingly stupid. Dumb as an unusually dumb gaggle of geese. Reckless as a veteran chainsaw-fucker. Clueless as a person whose clue budget for this fiscal year has been reduced to $0.03 in order to save money for lottery tickets, investments in the World Currency Cartel and to get Nigerian money out of Africa. Moronic as a toothless pigfucking banjo player that has just been appointed professor of Moronity at the Idiot Faculty of Cambridge University.
And because these people exist, I have received over a hundred of these e-mails in the last ten hours. Look, there are two more! Oh joy!
Explain again why we can’t just shoot everyone and start again from the insects?
Yep, I have received over a hundred of these little guys today. That’s the largest volume of virusesesess I have received in a single day … ever.
It’s probably more that I’ve seen in the last couple of months.
Same here. I wish I was as well spoken as SweetLucy
I wonder what kind of person is doing it. And why?
Pathetic, really.
Your whole post is a thing of beauty, but this is definitely the whipped cream on top of the sundae. It’s going into my quote file, and I swear I’m going to find some way to work it into conversation, soon.
My hero. swoon
Oh my. I’m blushing.
I suspect it’s not a single person or entity doing it, but a bunch of affected computers out there, whose owners probably don’t even know they’re sending out the virus. This nasty thing has its own SMTP engine, so it can send e-mails stealthily from your computer without your knowledge, as long as you’re connected to the Internet.
Of course, the origina author probably was some sad individual, who should be strung up by the testicles (assuming it’s a male, which they all seem to be)
I am currently receiving 133 new messages in my email! So far, they’re all bogus Microsoft security updates. Damn you, Mr. virus creator! I hope you get tossed into a jail cell with a big sweaty guy named “bubba” who wants a girlfriend.
73 here.
Maybe it’s a Mrs. virus creator. In which case I’d like to say:
You snotty, slutty, simple-minded, squalid peace of sputum, I hope your titties fall off.
[hijack]I’m still trying to figure out who keeps sending me the “grow your dick” emails… haven’t opened one yet to see the recipe but if my hubby doesn’t start putting out…[/hijack]
But if you don’t even open the e-mail, you’re okay, right?
Sick of seeing “Account Size Critical” every fucking time I check my e-mail.
Rilchiam yeah your fine as long as you don’t open the attachment.
IKWYM about the “account size critical” crap. It’s a PITA to see that every day. I got it again this morning because some jackass sent me an email with 1387kg of something on it. I didn’t even open THAT one. I just check marked it, hit Shift Delete, and went from 126% storage to 32%. Wouldn’t be so bad if it wasn’t all fucking SPAM.
Now I feel shorted cause I only got two. I toyed with the idea of sending it on to someone I really disliked but he doesn’t list his email …
On second thought. I would never ever consider such a thing. I promptly hit delete and emptied my trash. Then I ran the FxDumaru from Symantec just to be sure. No viruses found on my PC. Yay!
Okay, good. I never open anything from any address I don’t recognize.
