Welcome to Merauderweb

Is it YOU?

It seems someone who knows me, or someone who doesn't know me but has me in their address book (urr yeah that possibility is somewhat worrying) is infected with the lovely new Sobig variant, Sobig.F! Woo! If it's you, then you can check this page to get a bit of info about it and possibly go about disinfecting yourself.

It's always nice to be running a Notes client for email when these viruses do their rounds..

A few minutes after writing this I heard a rather amusing "news" article on the radio. The newsreader helpfully informed listeners to be wary of ANYTHING that contained "Re: " in the subject.. oh dear.. I don't suppose the stories of the System admins who place content filtering rules blocking that string are going to be too widely released, but if they were it would be quite amusing.

Theres some interesting technical reading on Sobig (if you're that way inclined) here.
