Trojan hidden in Tony Blair email hack message

Beware geeks baring GIFs
Friday, 6 May 2005, 13:32
ANTI VIRUS firm Sophos said a message sent out earlier today claiming Tony Blair's email was hacked conceals a trojan worm.

Sophos said that if you get one of these emails and click on the link, it will install the trojan and run a password stealer.

Because of yesterday's General Election here in Old Blighty, there is more danger of people clicking on such a link than normally.

We haven't seen such an email here at the INQ, but there's more info on the Sophos site, here. µ
