[AGL] amusing email from the Austin Community College IT nazi - i like the 'How am I doing?' at the bottom

[Michael Eisenstadt]

"New Dangerous Trojan Horse has been detected on Several ACC Computers"

This Trojan Horse is distributed via email.  Although the emails have been
marked as Spam by the ACC Email System, users continue to open them and
become infected with this "Backdoor Program".

A Trojan Horse is a huge personal security threat.  They enter your computer
undetected and give the attacker who planted the Trojan unrestricted access
to the data stored on your computer. Trojans can transmit credit card
information and other confidential data without you being aware the Trojan
horse is even installed on your computer.

PROTECT YOURSELF!

1.  Do not open email that the ACC email system has labeled as Spam.  Spam
can be identified by the three carets (^^^) preceding the subject in an
email.  Although virus detection programs are usually very dependable there
is always the chance that a virus, Trojan Horse or other malicious software
may slip through.
2.  Make sure you have Symantec Anti-Virus installed and that it is active.
3.  Make sure your Symantec Anti-Virus definitions are up to date.  They
should be no more than a week old at any given time.

If you have already opened one of these emails or need help configuring your
virus scanning software, please contact the HelpDesk.  We will send a
computer support tech to help you protect the data on your PC.
