This is not a hoax, it's a real virus. <sigh> Some people... This is confirmed by the website below. Non-Windows machines, of course, are immune! http://www.symantec.com/avcenter/venc/data/w95.hybris.gen.html ALL: Do NOT download any email that states 'the real story of Snow Whites and the seven dwarfs' I got an email from hahaha@.... When I went to download it, my virus program detected the infection and I deleted the file. I replied to the email address and received this response...rather interesting I thought: From: Auto Responder Subject: Autoresponse to your mail, re: Snowhite and the Seven Dwarfs - The REAL story! Date: Fri, 12 Jan 2001 09:44:49 -0500 +------------------- | Please read this whole email as it contains information that can | be used to protect your computer from a Virus that is spreading | around the internet. | |NOTA BENE: This message is automatically generated; PLEASE DO NOT REPLY. | Subsequent email with the same reply-to address should not | induce additional responses from this service. +--------- Hello, You are receiving this message because a email, which contained your email address as the return / reply-to address, was sent to hahaha@.... This is a list of possible reasons why you received this message. 1) You sent an email to hahaha@... to request, complain or notify this user that they are SPAMMING, sending an email with a virus, sending an email that has content that may not be appropriate for minors, to be removed from a mailing list, etc.. 2) Someone else sent an email to hahaha@... and they are using your email address as their return / reply-to address. If this is the case we are sorry that this email was sent to you but please do read it as it does contain information about a virus that is spreading around the internet that we are trying to stop / slow down. 3) You may already be infected with the computer virus for which this email is trying to inform you of. This virus (W32.Hybris.gen) will send a copy of itself to the reply-to address of any incoming emails that a infected computer receives. So when you received another copy of the "SPAM" that this virus sends out from another infected computer, the virus sends a copy of itself to hahaha@... since hahaha@... is the reply-to address of the "SPAM" the virus sends out. The truth about this SPAM, that contains Snowwhite in the Subject, is that a virus called W32.Hybris.gen sends out these emails with attachments that are also infected with this virus from a already infected computer hopping to infect more computers. This virus uses the address book as well as scans incoming and outgoing mail and http traffic for email address to send a copy of itself to. These emails the virus sends out use a fake / spoofed FROM: address of hahaha@... to hide its tracks. We registered the domain sexyfun.net in order to provide the people of the internet information about this virus as well as tips on how to detect, clean, trace and protect yourself from this virus. Here is a list of other facts that may answer some of your questions that you may have already. 1) We do NOT maintain any mailing lists on our system. 2) This user (hahaha) does NOT exist on our system. 3) The email that you got with the From: field of hahaha@... did NOT come from sexyfun.net or the hosting companies network. This email address was FAKED / SPOOFED. 4) The email you got is in FACT a way for the (W95.Hybris.gen) virus to spread itself around the world / Internet like the ILOVEYOU virus of a few months past. 5) If you would look at the Received: line of the FULL email header, it will tell you the real IP / Computer name that has sent you this virus, which is most likely someone you know that is infected with the virus and is not aware of it. 6) The owner of the domain sexyfun.net and the hosting company has setup a help page with information about the (W95.Hybris.gen) virus, links to software that you can use to clean your computer if you are infected as well as other misc. information. 7) We did NOT create the virus or know who the person is that created the virus. We are NOT affiliated with this person / persons and the same applies to our hosting company. NOTE: As long as you don't run / open / double click on the attachment of this email, this virus should not be able to infect you just by reading the email. Here are links to well known companies of anti-virus products that will show that what has been said above is true. http://www.f-secure.com/v-descs/hybris.shtml http://www.kaspersky.com/news.asp?tnews=0&nview=1&id4&page=0 This is the link to the website we have setup to provide additional information about this Virus. http://www.sexyfun.net/ (this is not a adult site of any type) If have any questions about this, our contact information is located on our web site ( http://www.sexyfun.net/ ) Thanks you for your time. ----- NOTE: Any replies sent to this email are not viewed by us.

Well, that's my point...no silly flashing logos and unnecessary bits. It's just an information web site after all. The icon simply signifies a folder or container, and apart from changing the colour or giving it an unnecessary picture you know immediately what everything is for. I like this simplistic approach on this kind of web site, but of course it's a matter of opinion and yours differs to mine. I'm sure we would agree with a lot of things but Windows folders obviously isn't one of them! Regards, > > > I said nothing about the structure of the site. I just said it looks like > Windows.

True! I'd just use plain text and indentation for navigation, instead of multiple graphics of folders and OnMouseOver actions :-) Ben On 1/12/01 at 11:49 PM, phil.angus@...

My copy of Sophos dealt with it immediately. Notice the difference in the text of this one placing the emphasis about information about the virus rather than the fact you should tell the World about it. At the end of the day, if you have the latest virus software you should avoid roughly 99.9% of all viruses, and the other 00.01% you will perhaps never see. I haven't been seriously affected by a virus for about four years now. Phil

Hi P2B/LAWP users! I'm presently running LAWP/2408 MK II on ASUS P2B/ Windows 98/ P II 350/ 256 RAM/ 6 gig (prog.) /30 gig Maxtor ( Audio). Everything is running well but since I whant to use softsynths in the future, I whant to upgrade my P II 350 to a P III 800. According to Asus, (www.asus.com/products/techref/chipset/p3cpu.html) I will have to flash the BIOS (presently 1006) to 1011 or later...fine, but they say that I need "PCB Revision R1.12 or later." How do I check the PCB revision? I checked at boot-up, checked on the ASUS shipping box, checked in the manual, checked on the board itself...??? ;( Thank you for any help... André

Don't own the P2B myself but you could try the Asus newsgroup: alt.comp.periphs.mainboard.asus (online at: http://www.deja.com/[ST_rn=fs]/group/alt.comp.periphs.mainboard.asus ) There's also Asus' own forum - 'NetQ', I think, at their own site.

I still say it will be there somewhere.

Sometimes I look at the egroups page and there seem to be messages listed there that I never received ... and sometimes I seem to have received messages that do not seem to be at egroups.

It is happening to several messages. This is the only email account I am subscribed to. As another example, your Admin mailing about insults has only just arrived. But I received Sascha's response, my own response to that, plus Jesse Widener's all yesterday. That is to say, after I had responded to what Sascha said it then occurred to me that he had referenced a message of yours that I had not actually seen. So I went to egroups and there it was!! This is what set me thinking. I think it best if I monitor the situation for a couple more days so I can give you a better report and cite a few more specific instances. It will be easy to track down what is happening that way. I will also contact you privately about it because I am quite sure this is already tedious to others in that I am the only one who seems to be having a problem with this. Thanks.

Someone said: >>> DAT tape is currently the best solution for regular, healthy backups. Tape backup is always a slightly risky business and is never and has never been the most reliable form of backup, and DAT is probably the worst there has been for SCSI tape reliability. It can be OK if you are extremely careful and don't suffer bad luck the one time you need to rely on it, and it has improved a lot over the years. If used for workstation backup for maybe once a fortnight backups as a secondary backup and if the drive is regularly cleaned when the drive's LED tells you it's time (very often overlooked with people) the DAT is fairly good and relatively cheap. However if cost isn't a major issue and you want tape I would use AIT, or if you can afford it get a small RAID 5 setup and maybe back that up for extra protection. CD is quite a reasonable backup media. The nice thing is it is now so cheap to get a good backup routine working with CDs. I can still read CDs I wrote 4 years ago. If the data was that critical I wouldn't go that long without another backup anyway. The trouble is, it is extremely easy however careful you are to find yourself in a non recoverable situation. No-one is more careful with backups and data integrity than me, but I've got into some sticky situations. The most important thing of all is to back up and then imagine loosing everything. How do you get the data back from tape or media and get back fully working? What steps can you take to bring yourself back on line? It may well be fine for you to reload the OS and then restore everything but there are pitfalls in doing that, and it is time consuming. I generally use this method: Two hard disks, each with an image of the other, both images backed up to servers. Local work files backed up regularly to tape and to servers. Servers backed up to tape. Boot floppy containing system files and Norton recovery tools. Servers with emergency recovery tools (Veritas Disaster Recovery) Boot floppy to get me on to server under Dos (Win 98 DOS) You can never over-backup! Even if I lost both local logical drives on either workstation, I can boot under Dos to server, copy both image files to local D, restore C from image file on D, reboot, copy image file of D to C, restore D from image file on C. The whole process would take about one hour. I should know I've just done it! Warning, never select your hard drive under Wavelab as a sampler, it destroys data on your drive completely!!! Phil

Hi, I'd like to install a second monitor. I currently have one 17" 1024*768 monitor at 100Hz. I'd like to know what the best (affordable!!!) solution is to have two monitors: what videocard should I use??? I dual head? If so, which one performs well enough to offer 100Hz for BOTH monitors? Thanks. On the website of Asus and Matrox, there's no info on what refresh rate they support for two monitors at the same time.
