I swear I never open email attachments but I still got it somehow. I'm lurking on the Lancair, Zenth and RV lists.The first thing I noticed this morning was that'drjoe' appeared under the'from' email column for each and every msg dealing with homebuilts.I started checking the 'properties' box for these emails and became totally bewildered as to how I was being designated as the sender. I started checking other folders and found that the 'sent items' folder contained emails for each email found in the 'inbox', in essence, each email I receive was sent back to the poster with an ATTACHMENT!!! Do Not Open that attachment, it contains the virus. I have been working on this virus most of the day with SystemSuite2000. With updated files the virus is not detected by this program.There is a'Real Time Virus Scanner' in SS2000 that does detect the virus but can't clear it because it goes undetected in the main program. SS2000 names this virus TROJ_BADTRANS.A. There are 2 files associated (AFAIK): C:\windows\INETD.EXE and and C:\windows\system\HKSDLL.DLL. I have deleted the EXE file via DOS and a change to the win.ini file but the DLL file keeps reappearing. After deleting the EXE file I emailed myself and the attachment is no longer present.I decided to download email this evening to see if anyone had more info on this virus and particularly on what it takes to remove the DLL file? Also, the 'from' email column is back to normal so it seems I'm not infectious any longer. Sorry for any problems this has caused the groups.
