Question email worm?

Hi-Need some input about a possible email worm.
I rec'd an email from a friend who said they keep receiving emails about undeliverable mail w/attachments. The emails are from his address to mine w/the subject "Undelivered Mail Returned to Sender". The attachment is labeled Undelive.zip (5.6 KB). The detail in the email states: From: Mail Delivery System [mailto:MAILER-DAEMON@kungfu.dreamhost.com]
I have not been receiving anything--only he is receiving them.
Any ideas?
I appreciate your help.
~PK

Howdy again pkme,


Sounds like your friend should have there system checked for infection, or contact their ISP about the emails to make certain. If your friend has a worm emailer infection it may be using their address book to propogate itself (with the infected mail being rejected along the way).

You are welcome. Just give them the CTH Cyber Safety link and they can post a HijackThis scan in a new request for someone to check out.
