Storm Worm Raises Its Ugly Head

The well-known Storm Worm keeps getting rewritten by its malware authors to target email users in a social engineering campaign. The email directs people to a malicious website that opens up a greeting they have been sent from a family member.

To avoid email worms and keep you computer safe by following this PC security info:
  1. Never open emails from unknown senders.
  2. Always keep your anti-virus updated.
  3. Scan your computer at least once a week for viruses.
  4. Keep your firewall turned on.
  5. Have an emergency boot cd available.
  6. Use as computer tips have.

Dallas Computer Repair reported recently how company executives are now being targeted by an email worm.
