I got a memo the other day about three new viruses bouncing around the internet via email... The first of which is delivered with a subject that says something to the effect of "Returned or Unable to Deliver." When read, this virus attaches itself to your copmuter components and renders them useless. Virus number two has a subject of "JOIN THE CREW." It will erase EVERYTHING on your hard drive. Virus number three is delivered as "PENPALL GREETINGS!" it appears to be a friendly letter asking you if you are interested in a penpal, but by the time you read it, it is too late. The virus will have already infected the boot sector of your hard drive, destroying all of the data present. It is a self replicating virus, and once the message is read, it will AUTOMATICALLY forward itself to anyone who's email is present in your mail box, destroying their hard drive, and then sending itself to anyone who's address is in their mailbox...etc..etc... so don't send messages to the list with the title of Delivery Error Notification....if it does end up being the virus, there will be a lot of very angry angry-psychos thanks much ME (aka NewRockGuy) ------------------------------ Date: Sat, 7 Feb 1998 14:42:36 -0500 From: "Francis Hogle" Subject: greetings from here's my attempt to answer the little questionnaire you get when you join the list. my name is Francis. I'm 25 and live in the Seattle area. I'm a professional software designer. I don't remember where I first heard POE because it was a while ago. Last winter (96-97) I was visiting my sound engineer brother in Boston, he may have introduced me to POE, as he apparently worked a POE show in the Boston area some time in '96. The questionnaire wanted me to list 'other musicians' I listen to. there are too many to list here ;) Instead I'll just list what I've been listening to this evening while working: * The Art of Noise * EBN * Tangerine Dream * Future Sound of London * Philip Glass * Kronos Quartet (actually one album of KQ playing PG music) * POE (what prompted me to look for POE.ORG on the web) this isn't necessarily representative of anything except what I was in the mood for and had in reach over the past few hours... I'm a dreamer. Often I think too hard and can't fall asleep. I have a strange memory - the short term is all a jumble, while long term meories that I do retain are near photographic. When I do fall asleep I often have trouble waking up again. I'm not one who gets to know people any other way than by interacting, so I'm not sure what else of meaning I can say. - -Francis fmh4@hotmail.com PS in addition to becoming an Angry Psycho, I've recently joined hotmail so I can post without using my work email address. hopefully soon I'll know the @poe.org address since I can have that feed directly to me at work (the inbox which gets constant attention). hotmail on the other hand... ______________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free Email at http://www.hotmail.com ------------------------------ Date: Sat, 7 Feb 1998 15:42:59 -0500 From: "Bill Holz" Subject: Re: NPR, but please read One must also be careful of the 'congratulations' virus. Reading a message with this header will place a virus on your system that will delete all your games, destroy your financial records, submit you for an audit with the IRS, E-mail your new phone number to all your ex-es, subscribe you to every list server on AOL and automatically forward incriminating photos of you with nancy reagan in a very compromising position to your curent lover(s). In addition it will make a bunch of '1-900' calls on your line and will send threatening mail to the Pope, President of the United States, NRA Headquarters, and the Mafia. Actually there is no virus of any sort that can 'infect' a system from a mail message in the manner described. E-mail clients function as interpreters when reading a message and do not have the capacity to 'execute' information directly. The only way for a mail message of any sort to contain a virus that can 'infect' a system would be for it to have an attachment (.com, .exe, or .bat always works. And .doc .xls .scr and a few others can contain 'scripts' that function inside the native application.). Of course you never want to double click an 'exe' 'com' or 'bat' file unless you know what it is and where it comes from anyway. Everything else depends on another program to function and will show the appropriate icon before you double-click on them. Of course it's good to get a virus scanner and keep checking your system . . .but don't fear opening a message just because of the title, instead keep educated and be aware of where the risks may lie - -Bill >I kind of absently mindedly read this message and got lucky , >but you should be careful when reading your messages.

I'm a 18 yr old freshman at U of M, unsure of what I am doing here. Enough of that. Um, the first time I heard the preciousniss that is POE....actually i think it was on that dumb radio sex show...lovephones. They always played ANGRY JOHNNY in between breakes and i thought it sounded good so I bought the CD and found that it was even better!! Um, I almost got to go to a Poe show (with EELS and PURE playing too) but I got screwed out of my ticket and it pissed me off. :) oh well. MY fave POE songs are probably THAT DAY and DOLPHIN...but I really do love them all. I feel that, though there are tons and tons of new artists arriving on the "scene," Poe is one of the most original ones. Hmmmm...other music i like...here goes: tori amos (my goddess), bjork pj harvey, NIN, manson, Rasputina, veruca salt, sarah mclachlan, loreena mckennitt, hole, milla, thrill kill kult.....the list goes on. OH...and i have another random POE tidbit to add.... I went to see that movie FIFTH ELEMENT...and there was this part where gary oldman randomly started choking [on] a cherry...it was kinda wierd because i was listening to that song on the way there....anyways, he spit it out and it hit this little elephant in the eye...that part was dumb. well, that's about it. goodbye all! :) steve ------------------------------ Date: Sat, 7 Feb 1998 14:43:44 -0600 From: Jason Capriotti Subject: Web Page Update I just updated my POE/AP web page, so check it out.

I'm not going to say you can't get a virus through e-mail, because that is definately not true. But you can't get a virus by reading an e-mail that has a subject of "Returned or Unable to Deliver". You also can't get a virus from reading an e-mail that has a subject of "PenPal Greetings", or "Join the Crew". Some of the ways to get a virus from e-mail is if you open an attachment that has been sent to your computer, and actually run that attachment, or through reading an attached MS Word document (the dreaded macro virus family) For more information, check out: http://kumite.com/myths/fas/fas-gt.htm It has information regarding virus myths.

I got a memo > the other day about three new viruses bouncing around the internet via > email... this is the virus.... It's all a joke, a metaphor. They post the Myth, then the Myth spreads like wildfire, propagated intentionally by those who don't understand how email works. It is an innocent mistake, but still quite annoying when you see it for the 403rd time. There is only one way to get a virus from email. Somebody must send you and attadchment. Then you must decode the attachment, and then you must run the attachment, so absolutely nothing is going to happen without you knowing about it. You can't beleive everything you see/read/hear.
