    RED ALERT-Sober Warning

    Just want to inform you folks. The new Sober-worm outbreak is serious and will not be slashed by your firewall.

    We're on the edge of polymorphic malware, so be safe and do double-check your mails before opening them!

    I got about 30 of these sent to me today. Fortunately, my ISP's spam-filtering software nabbed them all.

    Yes, but this new Sober-variant changes its code a few times a day so most scanners can't catch up-beware, beware!
