Hi there folks, Twice in the past hour I have been messaged by two separate people on UnderNet. The message goes: :!Notice!: A Recent Port Scan on your Computer reveals that Port 1800 is in open state. This usually means that you have been infected with an IRC Worm Virus. Please download the cleaner at: http://www.No-Hack.Us/Fixes/Worm1800.exe to remove the virus from your system. If you do not comply with this rule within 30 minutes, our client monitor will ban you from this network. -Thanks For Understanding. UNDERNet Exploit Team The nicks have both been Under-XXX (where XXX is a different set of numbers). For one, I know that port 1800 is not open however the file Worm1800.exe does not show up anything when scanned. Both of the users that messaged me were on pacbell.net adsl The domain no-hack.us was only registered 6 days ago. I don't have the spare time or computer to have a further look into what this file actually does, has anyone come across this yet and know what it does or is anyone willing to investigate? -- O- cw, cwat_private on 20/06/2002 "Part man, part monkey.
