Another email Hacked

[ceagle]

I posted a while back about The White Otter's email being hacked (I started to receive bogus messages with trojans or fraudulent phishing links attached), and now I received one from Aura Moser (I don't recall their handle).

Just a heads-up warning yall...

Yep... I've spent a great deal of the afternoon updating and cleansing the system, since I (d'oh!) left the browser window open after it was detected, and so it wasn't fully quarantined... and remained in memory... so I started to see suspicious behavior, like frequent hijackings of my mouse pointer ;/

Eeek! O.O

I hope you managed to quarantine it successfully the second time around.

So far so good!... I still have to tweak the anti-virus program a bit before it gets back to normal... it thinks it needs me to restart all the time after I do a fix, so I gotta re-install the defs manually..
