The Shakespeare Conference: SHK 13.2415  Friday, 16 December 2002

Subject:        WARNING: DELETE ANY MESSAGE WITH SUBJECT LINE HONEY

Dear SHAKSPEReans:

Although this is not supposed to happened, it appears that SHAKSPER
might have been wormed. Eric and I are looking into it now. The error
messages are reporting various forms of the W32.Klez.H@mm worm.

It gets confusing here. Some indicate the worm is attached to a "pif"
file ? This is not suppose to happen; others that the worm is attached
to a HTML file ? This is possible but would most likely not infect your
computer.

If you have opened an attachment from shaksper@eae.shaksper.net
shaksper@shaksper.net or editor@shaksper.net with the subject line:
Honey, then delete the file immediately. If you have opened an attached
"pif" file you may be infected. Below is a tool to clean out the worm if
you are so.

Again, we know something about how the message was distributed, but not
if it is, in fact, infectious.

Sorry,
Hardy
