above link contains the following exploit:

Bloodhound.Exploit.6

By embedding a specially crafted URL in a Web page and having that URL refer to a CHM file containing an HTML file with scripts in it, an attacker could force the user who views the Web page with a vulnerable version of Internet Explorer to download and execute files.

**Jodi** · 08-17-2004, 01:12 PM

Ahh.....I'm not running IE

Doesn't anyone learn?

"Hey everybody here is the new price, just open the zip file"
Well dammit, if you didnt ask for the old price, do you really need the new price? Users are grand

**Jodi** · 08-17-2004, 02:37 PM

We got that virus last week. I sent out a warning about an hour before it hit us and I still had users opening the damn thing

**Pirate!** · 08-17-2004, 02:58 PM

Thanks for the Fucking Virus! Shouldn't that link be pulled?

Even better, are the ones who read it, and then call and ask if that means they shouldnt open it. "Oh no... everyone else shouldn't open it , but you, on the other hand can, because your special"

No offense to those here who opened the link, just venting with a fellow IT person

**MaxMirkin** · 08-17-2004, 03:09 PM

IT people are very easy to annoy. (And often fun to torture.

)

I personally love the ones that call and say, "Hey I opened the virus, can you come and clean it now?"

If you knew it was the virus why did you open it

I hate being the only IT person here......I hate users.

Exactly what I was thinking.

**Chain Link** · 08-17-2004, 03:51 PM

OMG thats ingenious! He has the Austrian press spouting him airtime, and a german organization out to stop him.. how? Money!
Hes donating 80% of the profits to charity, but thats still 20% in pocket.. Thats 200,000 euros if he gets a million. Whats the conversion, 1 Euro to 1.5 to 2 dollars? Or was that the pound? Dunno, but its a hellovalot of money.
(I got the damn virus too...) AVG didnt catch it.. Ill run a scan later; Trojan users are ussually too scared to cause real damage; instead theyll just dl your porn and flip your screen or give you the matrix screen or something

Plus with over 720,000 page hits, I highly doubt he would ever get around to hitting one of us

I hate dumbass users too. We sometimes get calls from users saying they received a file from someone they dont know, and they would like to foward it to us to see if we can open it. Um like HELL NO.

**greekblondechic** · 08-17-2004, 10:26 PM
