Hi Bill & All:
The following is what is going around in e-mails:
McAfee.com has received an increasing number of reports from home users with
a new variant of Badtrans, referred to as Badtrans.b. AVERT has raised the
Risk Assessment on this variant of W32/Badtrans@MM to HIGH RISK FOR
CONSUMERS.
You posted that same topic on 15 APR 2001. The person with the infected
computer was not knowingly sending that post topic back out with the virus
attached.
So there is probably not a new lead. I have received similar e-mails.
Regards,
Mark

Subject: [INJEFFER] Harrison query and mailing list worm
Greetings all,
I have been deleting unsolicited msg right and left during the past few
days which bear all of the characteristics of containing "problems". In
particular the ones which indicate that something is being downloaded
from the internet prior to my having chosed to do so. Also they usually
contain a return address that begins with an underscore "_", which has
been identified as being a problem msg.
However this last one really made me sit up and take notice, because of
the subject line. It read. "Unknown HARRISON drowned in Ohio River in
1863"
If anyone does have information about the above event, I am VERY
interested in learning more! Our family tradition story relates that my
g-gf, William Henry Harrison, and his brother and sister came down the
Ohio River ------- in 1863 -------, and the brother fell overboard and
was killed by the paddle wheel.
So, yes, I am interested in pursuing this lead.
