Saddam Hussein "death" virus on loose
BRITISH ANTIVIRUS firm Sophos warned that a version of the Bobax-H worm is on the loose, disguised as pictures of a dead Saddam Hussein.
According to Sophos, the worm carries different message warnings such as "Saddam Hussein: Attempted Escape. Shot Dead".
Other versions carrying the same payload claim to have pictures of a captured Osama Bin Laden.
Sophos said the worm, if activated, carries the same payload as the Sasser worm exploited.
Graham Cluley, marketing director at Sophos, warned that many people opened emails to be abreast of the news.
