Microsoft Security E-mail Spoofs with Malware
From: The Microsoft Security Response Center (MSRC)
http://blogs.technet.com/msrc/archiv...h-malware.aspx We received some questions from customers about an e-mail that’s circulating that claims to be a security e-mail from Microsoft. The e-mail comes with an attached executable, which it claims is the latest security update, and encourages the recipient to run the attached executable so they can be safe. While malicious e-mails posing as Microsoft security notifications with attached malware aren’t new (we’ve seen this problem for several years) this particular one is a bit different in that it claims to be signed by our own Steve Lipner and has what appears to be a PGP signature block attached to it. While those are clever attempts to increase the credibility of the mail, I can tell you categorically that this is not a legitimate e-mail: it is a piece of malicious spam and the attachment is malware. Specifically, it contains Backdoor:Win32/Haxdoor. http://www.microsoft.com/security/po...:Win32/Haxdoor Microsoft *** NEVER *** emails updates. *** NEVER *** MowGreen [MVP 2003-2009] =============== *-343-* FDNY Never Forgotten =============== |

As you can see, Murphy has made several references to Rimonabant (brand
name: Zimultri, produced by Sanofi-Adventis.) This may be a medication Murphy is presently taking. Rimonabant is an anti-obesity drug. If Murphy has a problem with obesity, it's not hard to imagine why he is so enraged. He may even be the victim of bullying (which may explain why he picks on people with ethnic backgrounds.) No one deserves to be bullied, including Murphy. But there's more. According to the Wikipedia: "Shortly after market introduction, press reports and independent studies suggest that side effects occur stronger and more commonly than shown by the manufacturer in their clinical studies. Reports of severe depression are frequent." Indeed, in its report dated June 13, 2007, the United States FDA was aware that Rimonabant is associated with an increased risk of depression and of suicidal thoughts even in those with no history of depression. Of course, I don't know for a fact that Murphy is on Rimonabant. But he does mention Rimonabant prominently. If I'm right, it means that Murphy is suffering from the effects of his medication and deserves our support to get help. For me, that means I will no longer argue with him - that clearly won't accomplish anything - but I do feel justified in setting the record straight when he is impersonating me, although that rarely seems necessary anymore. --- Leonard Grey Errare Humanum Est nass [MVP] wrote: Thank you so musch for your Love.
