I musta got that thing sent to me no less than 25 times.
Probably about 10 times. Did you get the sender as ‘nobody’? How the heck do you block ‘nobody’ (without an email to block) from sending that crap again…?
I got it about 14 times. But I’m on a Mac, so it was no thing.
I got it 16 times overnight, blocked that sender in the morning, then got it another time from another address, blocked that sender as well.
When you recieve the same 180kb attachment toting email 16 times, you don’t have to open it to know that some arsecheese is sending you a virus.
I haven’t seen it yet. But I did get the SnowWhite joke virus from haha@sexy.net again. For the umpteenth time.
I had hoped that one had died the death it so richly deserved.
Virii are as troublesome as sulfuric acid in a dribble glass. And just as amusing:rolleyes:
I’ve gotten it about 10 times, twice in spanish. All from people I’ve corresponded with at one time or another. I just delete it.
I got it probably about 10 times the first day, 8 times the second and a couple of times since. I never open file attachments anyway, so it didn’t bother me except for lagging out my POP3 connection the first day, but my provider has a web mail interface and I just deleted them from there.
Mac schmack… avoiding viruses just takes common sense 
None on the home computer…I’ll know tomorrow morning how many people at the office opened it. That way, I can laugh at them and just delete all the copies. 
Nobody cares enough about me to even send me a virus…
I’ve gotten it at least 20 times in two different e-mail accounts. I’ve never gotten more then 1 or 2 of any virus before. Message Labs shows the virus has shown up more than any other virus since they started tracking data – in less than two weeks.
I’ve gotten this 3 times at home, each time by people I didn’t know (from mailing lists, etc.)
Did anyone hear about the ultimate virus-defeater that some programmers in England came up with? It causes your email program to ask for confirmation every time an individual email is sent, cutting off viruses at the source. This should be compulsory for every computer - I just haven’t heard any more about it since the first reports. I just wish I’d come up with that idea.
At least six or seven times.
I only got it once, actually. I immediately opened up the attached .doc file with DOSEDIT to see what it was. Even before researching, it was painfully obvious that it was a virus (when you see embedded VB code with Winsock functions, it’s a dead giveaway.) I’m really surprised how stupid some people can be when it comes to viruses.
I’ve lost count. In fact, I have 52 messages at work over the weekend and since the connection keeps timing out and it’s taking forever to load, it’s a reasonable bet about a third of them are that freaking virus. I hope they track down who wrote the thing and put a bullet in his head. Not just because he’s inconveniencing me (well…maybe a little…) but just due to the sheer amount of damage it’s causing.
I typically recieve about 150 email messages a day, spread between 5 different accounts. Not one example of SirCam in any of them, to date.
Working with people that have good AV awareness rocks!
I’d say about 15-20 times. They mostly end up in my BULK MAIL folder on Yahoo! mail, but sometimes they don’t. But I am dumbfounded at some, because all of these addresses I’ve never seen before, and supposidly the virus mails documents from the My Documents folder with the virus attatched to the people on your e-mail list.
I only got it 5 or 6 times, across 2 accounts. I didn’t know any of the senders’ names, so I guess some spammers got infected - huzzah!!
about 8-10 times i think…the most i’ve got any virus !
a friend of mine got it over 100 times… it is nuts!! hopefully it goes away soon…
