Re: [sharechat] WARNING !!!! SNOW WHITE

Hi All

According to my copy of Nortons Anti Virus, this file is infected with: W32.Hybris.gen virus. Johns warning is certainly sage advice to all those without regulary updated anti virus software.

Subject: [sharechat] WARNING !!!! SNOW WHITE

Just a small warning to anyone who might be tempted to open the .exe file in the snow white message. It could very well be a virus. This is an easy way to spread viruses and a prudent person would not open an exe file from an unknown person. I will not say this is a virus for sure but I sure as heck won't be opening it to find out.

It is my suggestion if possible that Ben removes any messages like the snow white one so some innocent user of this list doesn't make a mistake and get caught. My suspicions would be it is possibly a Trojan or Back door virus. Time will tell.

John
