UPS invoice "hook" and bring back the "old' hotmail *sigh*

[Duh_OZ]

Before M$ brought us the new & improved (windows live) hotmail I could
download a infected attachment by adding something like scan=false to
the URL. Still haven't found a workaround in live hotmail. Still
getting UPS invoice 'hooks' and would like to test 'K and Avira
AntiVir to see if they catch it. Hotmail just says 'unknown
virus" (at least say malware!) so no idea what variant the malware is
*ugh*

Ozzy:

Many are just downloaders or droppers for the FakeAlert type trojan for Rogue anti malware
and the newer class of Rogue Windows maintenace software (deframenters, system restore,
etc.)
