OT - Trojan Horse and other Viruses
 

Can somebody explain to me why all these messages being sent
that contain viruses cannot be tracked down to the guilty party
and be prosecuted. Is it that none of the services care????

report it to your ISP & the ISP of the sender they should follow up on it

imho:

First, the orginal infector(the one who did it intentionally) probly
spoofed the headers.

Second, the later posts are probly people who don't know what an
anti-virus program is, or to not click on unknow links. So they are
just boobs.

You will not get the orignial infector, since it's like looking for a
needle in a big pile of needles.

Finding the orignial(sic) infector must be much easier than finding the
original, which is like finding a needle in a haystack.

according to 'mythbusters' finding needles in haystacks takes about 8 hours.
and that was with the first iterations of the machine. should one wish to
improve and build a properly sized machine it would only take about 5-10
minutes.

If the original infector is long gone how do we keep seeing different
headers.
