Hi All,

My boss has just had a phone call from one of our software vendors who
has in turn been talking with a rep from Cardinal Software.  He said
that the FBI have just finnished a meeting with many of the major
software vendors regarding a flood of new Terrorist related viruses
about to be released in the next couple of hours.  Some are supposed to
be new, others are variants of Nimda (which will presumably have a more
profound effect this time). 

Has anyone else heard these reports? If it is true, we could have an
even larger epidemic on our hands.  I know everyone this list has their
patches upto date though right? =) As well all know though, new
explouits are released everyday so be vigilant people &amp; keep an eye
out.  I would expect Cardinal to lie about this kind of thing to their
customers... 

Scratch ya later
Stu
