    lo lads, in work we just got a virus with the subject "A Great Shockwave Flash Movie", in it it has an file called Creative.exe, this file will send its self out to every one in your mail list if your using outlook. it will also rename and move all you .jpg, .zip and .mp3 files. it will move them to you c:\ drive and add the line "change atleast now to LINUX" to their ext. ie. if you have a zip file myzip.zip it will now be myzip.zipchange atleast now to LINUX. it will also put a .txt file into the c:\ dir with what files it changed, it is called messageforyou.txt

    hope this helps if you have it.


    ps...dont try and delete the file it puts in your c:\ drive (creative.exe) as it will try and send its self again.

    pps...if your running windows 9x it will put it in the start-up folder as well, but if you do not have your windows dir named c:\windows you should be ok, ie. c:\winnt
