Title: Odd email I recieved
Post by: Augie64 on March 04, 2005, 08:50:56 PM

So I recive an Email to my main accout for my website. And in it is a .RAR file. knowing that this isnt a good thing, I scaned it with Avast. and nothing.

After extracting it I rescaned it. And nothing.

Im very sure that this isnt a friendly file ive recieved. Is there anywhere here I can send it to you guys so that you cna tear it apart and find out what it is?

You could have found the address on the Avast website as well as if you would have used the search option on this board.


virus@avast.com
Put the suspected file in a password protected zip and mention in the body of the message the password.

If you want, you can also upload and scan it with several scanners here: http://virusscan.jotti.org/
