Neue Mimail-Varianten attackieren Antispam-Websites

(PresseBox) (Nieder-Olm, )
Sophos, größter spezialisierter Entwickler von Antiviren- und Antispam-Software, hat zwei neue Varianten des Mimail-Wurms entdeckt - Mimail-E und Mimail-H -, die Angriffe auf Antispam-Websites starten.
Beide Mimail-Varianten verbreiten sich per E-Mail. Sobald sie von einem ahnungslosen Anwender aktiviert werden, können die Würmer
über den infizierten Computer eine Denial of Service-Attacke gegen Websites auslösen, die von Antispam-Organisationen betrieben werden. Unter den bereits angegriffenen Websites sind die von SpamCop, SPEWS (Spam Prevention Early Warning System) und The Spamhaus Project.

'Diese Mimail-Würmer versuchen, die Quellen für Antispam-Tools im Internet auszuschalten. Damit stellen sie einen eindeutigen Angriff auf jeden dar, der E-Mails für ausschließlich seriöse Lcswsx qyylx', zcuel Ggoqpb Dkqrhc, Kymbpu Pagyvjpak Vunynbhrxe dhr Dzqcud.
