卡巴斯基公司报告网络蠕虫病毒 Mimail
新变种 Mimail.i 正在互联网上迅速蔓延。通常含有以下信息：
发送者地址：
donotreply@paypal.com
主题:
YOUR
PAYPAL.COM ACCOUNT EXPIRES
邮件正文：
Dear
PayPal member,
PayPal
would like to inform you about some important information
regarding your PayPal account. This account, which is associated
with this email address will be expiring within five business
days. We apologize for any inconvenience that this may cause,
but this is occurring because all of our customers are required
to update their account settings with their personal information.
We
are taking these actions because we are implementing a new
security policy on our website to insure everyone's absolute
privacy. To avoid any interruption in PayPal services then
you will need to run the application that we have sent with
this email (see attachment) and follow the instructions. Please
do not send your personal information through email, as it
will not be as secure.
IMPORTANT!
If you do not update your information with our secure application
within the next five business days then we will be forced
to deactivate your account and you will not be able to use
your PayPal account any longer. It is strongly recommended
that you take a few minutes out of your busy day and complete
this now.
DO
NOT REPLY TO THIS MESSAGE VIA EMAIL! This mail is sent by
an automated message system and the reply will not be received.
Thank you for using PayPal.
附件：
paypal.asp.scr
像先前的版本一样，最新版本的 Mimail
病毒以附件的形式附着在电子邮件里。发信人伪造成 donotreply@paypal.com
邮件地址，其目的也是故意伪造欺骗收件人并告知有关使用者的
PayPal 账户的信息。信件中的： 'YOUR
PAYPAL.COM ACCOUNT EXPIRES' 语句复含在英文文本里，它要求收件人修改更新他们个人
PayPal 账户的信息并付上文件。
邮件的附件一旦被打开，蠕虫就会完全控制受害者的机器。如果受害者中了Mimail病毒，屏幕上会弹开一个关于
PayPal 信用卡的通知请求窗口。将所输入的信息存储在一个名为
"ppinfo.sys"
的文件中，蠕虫会将邮件发给病毒制造者。
卡巴斯基公司强烈要求 Internet
用户全面提防新版本的 Mimail 蠕虫病毒。同时强烈呼吁所有用户警惕来历不明邮件的附件，并尽快升级病毒数据库。
