Virus Alert 3/6/2001

Heads up. This one is for real and it's got teeth -- luckily it's not
spreading as quickly as the others. Much like many recent viruses, it
propagates via auto-forwarding emails. IT MAY APPEAR TO COME FROM ONE OF
YOUR FRIENDS. Do not open it under any cirumstances. But unlike those
nuisance viruses, this one does real damage. See also the Associated Press'
site's article:

Below info is from Trend Micro's antivirus website (see bottom of email for
link to more info):

Description:
This destructive Trojan was written in Visual Basic Script and requires VB
6.0 (MSVBVM60.DLL) to be installed in the infected computer to run. Upon
execution, this Trojan deletes all DLL, INI, EXE, BMP, LOG and COM files in
the Windows and system directories. Due to this, it is impossible to reboot
an infected system.
It propagates via MS Outlook and Outlook Express, by sending out an email to
every email address listed in the infected user's address book. This email
has the subject line "FW: Naked Wife" and the attachment "NakedWife.EXE."
Result:
(When the application is run), this Trojan deletes files with the following
file extensions in the Windows and System directories: DLL, INI, EXE, BMP,
LOG and COM
This deletion of files makes it impossible to reboot an infected computer.
This Trojan propagates via Microsoft Outlook and Outlook Express. It sends
itself out as an email attachment to all lists in the address book of the
infected user. A sample of the email is as follows:
Subject: FW: Naked Wife
Message Body: > My wife never look like that :)
Best Regards,
<Sender>
Attachment: NakedWife.exe
After sending out the email, the Trojan displays a message box titled
"Flash," with the following text:
You're now FUCKED! (C) 2001 by BGK (Bill Gates Killer)
