Hi there! A friend is getting some weird popup message windows on his
Windows 2000 system --here's the gist of it:
"Message fromUPDATE to NOW on (lists the current date/time)
Important Notice from MSOFT
Buffer Overflow inMessenger Service Allows Unexpected Computer Shutdown,
Virus Infection and Remote Code Execution
Affected Software:
Here's where it lists just about all the MSoftware on his system"
******
It has a link to an URL (my bad -- I didn't get it!) to "fix" this problem
and get updates -- sounds like this is an attempt to hijack his system or
install spyware on it, but I have used norton AV and Ad-Aware -- neither of
which have found anything...any ideas? Has anyone else seen this?
Thanks in advance...
