Sounds like an attempt to overload the filters of the echelon surveillance system :) http://www.fas.org/irp/program/process/echelon.htm Luke ----- Original Message ----- From: "Simon Robert" <simon-robert@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> To: "Devon & Cornwall Linux Users Group" <list@xxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Friday, January 02, 2004 7:57 AM Subject: [LUG] haiku virus?
This is off subject, so apologies in advance. Has anyone been seeing spam messages which are three or four lines of nonsense? Not trad spam in that it doesn't include a virus attachment or an invitation to enlarge parts of ones anatomy - just the words and nothing else. An example is echidna massif knee artery disparage ferric eros carefree secretariat analyst bacilli ge meltwater pharmacist marginalia cashew click enigmatic assort bismuth philadelphia could be a haiku or something, but a can't remember how many syllables
they
are. I'm assuming this is a virus that grabs words from the infectee's documents and then mails them out (wonder what OS such a virus might
like).
I can't see any recent virus that behaves this way. So any ideas? Simon -- The Mailing List for the Devon & Cornwall LUG Mail majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxx with "unsubscribe list" in the message body to unsubscribe.
