"Shoppy Bag" virus?
« on: May 08, 2011, 08:11:15 PM »
I'm new here, disclaimer:  not very savy as far as poking around in my files goes. Got an email from an aunt
with the subject line stating something about being tagged in a shoppy bag picture. 
So I bit... big mistake. :-[
Now my email account is attaching this virus thing to my all my emails and sending out emails twice a day all by itself, imagine that!  :o

I've run avast once, the quick scan, so now I'm running a full scan, but will this scan my email account? 

Any other suggestions? 

Thanks so much.

First see "my messages" here  (top right corner)


Then

Check for malware with this

Malwarebytes Anti-Malware 1.50.1 http://filehippo.com/download_malwarebytes_anti_malware/
always update so you have the latest signatures before you scan
click on the remove selected  button to quarantine anything found

post the scan log here

Thanks so much - should I wait until this present scan is finished, or should I stop that one and proceed with this other suggestion?

I don't know if I can make that determination yet.  Twice in a 24 hour period, the virus has done a mass mailing from my account.  I've always remained logged in to that account, but I've changed my password and alternate email preferences and logged out each time I checked it. So far, there have been no more mass mailings, but I don't think I'll feel completely at ease until in the morning.

Shoppybag is a social network, it doesn't let you download anything and doesn't ask for your email password.  It is not on your computer, anyway.  If you want to stop them inviting your friends to join (which is normal social network functionality), you can change your account settings in your ShoppyBag profile, or delete your account if you don't care for social shopping. 

Safeweb and McAfee routinely scan everything for possible malware and security threats:

Good luck!

Thanks for the information.  :)

 I  don't necessarily think that the virus is called "shoppy bag", that's just how it presented itself.
The subject line said something about "shoppy bag" and then inside the email itself it said "Jane Doe has tagged you in a photo".  So I clicked on the photo, and got the message "can't be opened."
Then all these mass emailings from my personal email account started bouncing back as "undeliverable", or "spam warnings".   

I got another "undeliverable" one this morning. I'm trying to sign out every time so I don't know if that one was just a stray one finally making it back or if it's a whole new batch. Time will tell. 

When this happened I had just sprained my ankle (Thursday) and was taking pain medication only at night, but that's usually when I'm online, so I'll use that as my excuse for doing something that normally would set off alarm bells.
