OK, I know that this thread is targetted at email viruses but what about Code Red II ?

How are you M$ foks holding out? Me, I'm OS X so, so far I'm sorta safe .... but my DSL router is taking a nice beating, that has slacked off finally.

Also, here's a link to a ekkk a mac site.

One person has taken a different somewhat not legal approach to offenders. :-) send back code to shut down the twit server. Not nice, but should get the admin's attention.

I keep getting hit by Chinese and Korean servers. Not something to play games with.

Why don't you just send it back? I do that with all my junk mail -- if it's html things I send 3. NO response, No comment, just return it. After that they basically stop, I guess it makes them think ??? or the email might have automatic shut off code built in somewhere ???



just a thought.
