Beware of "Here You Have" E-mail Virus

Be fair, attentive, and customers
will return.

The virus, called "Here You Have,"
is a simple Trojan Horse that
security companies are calling by
different names.

An e-mail arrives in your in-box with
the subject line "Here You Have." The
body reads: "This is The Document I told
you about, you can find it Here." Or,
"This is The Free Download Sex Movies,
you can find it Here."

It pounded corporate America Thursday,
took down servers at ABC, NASA, Comcast
and Google. It was in Google's top five
searches Friday.

The Internet Storm Center, a free
analysis and warning service that tracks
malicious Internet activity reported that
the application responsible for the spam
choking the servers had been taken down,
but the Web wasn't out of danger.

"New variants may well follow," the Storm
Center warned.

Click on the link and the download will
launch a program that spams the same Trojan
Horse to everyone in your address book.

"It looks like multiple variants may be
spreading and it may take some time to work
through them all to paint a clearer picture,"
Craig Schmugar on McAfee's Threat Response page.

The "Here You Have" worm doesn't attack Norton/
Symantec products, according to Norton. Norton
recommends their Norton Internet Security 2011.
