Hi all, staff where I work recieved a lot of E-Mails like these a number of years ago so I submitted a sample to our antivirus supplier. They found these to be the result of an antivirus system doing an incomplete job of removing a virus during the E-Mails transit. These may possibly be the same thing. -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Wednesday, 27 July 2005 2:36 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: Strange and very small email - new virus Yes, we have gotten about 2 of these types of emails. The file is a named 1.txt (61 Bytes in size) and the email subject is "1". We are a company with about 35 email addresses under our domain and have received viruses through some of them in the past. This strange email has come to 2 of our accounts - 1 last week and 1 today. I got one today and did a google search which led me to this site. Very odd since the attachment seems to have no virus payload which you would expect for such a strange email.
