Ok my subject is for fun, but seriously, I received an email
with an attached file:
phpMyAdmin-2.2.0rc3-php3.zip.bat
asking to take a look at the file.
I guess that depending on my email client, I could have seen
phpMyAdmin-2.2.0rc3-php3.zip and be tempted to double-click it.
Well I didn't because this contains a virus.
Bye

They should have called it rc4 ;-)
More seriously, I also received a couple of emails with sircam virii in reply to
some of my post on the ml ...
As would have said Mulder : trust no 1

Hi all,
Ok my subject is for fun, but seriously, I received an
email
with an attached file:
phpMyAdmin-2.2.0rc3-php3.zip.bat
asking to take a look at the file.
I guess that depending on my email client, I could have seen
phpMyAdmin-2.2.0rc3-php3.zip and be tempted to double-click it.
Well I didn't because this contains a virus.
This is SIRCAM, a Worm/Virus.
And I received the same last week with phpMyAdmin in attached file (and much
of others before with MPEG, Zip, Word or Excel files, etc.).
The (enfected) sender of this mail had a copy of phpMyAdmin RC3 in his own
disk.
And your email adress in his adress book.
Of course, you can configure postfix or sendmail (with procmail) to reject
this mail.

And so on...
