Sobig.MM infected users?

26 Jun 2003

      Hi guys, (specifially those at IHUG) any chance someone can do something
about this user on IHUGs ADSL system? - (203-118-165-45.adsl.ihug.co.nz)

This post is in desperation after the correct procedure for reporting
this was followed twice with IHUG and no-one did anything about it
except send a request for the full email which was given, and then sent
me back a totally blank reply. IHUGs Helpdesk were apologetic, but said
that no-one could do anything about it except between the hours of
midnight and 8am (!!!!)

Anyway, it wouldn't normally be an urgent issue, but the poor sucker
that's infected has just subscribed to about 5 more lists that I'm on,
as well as a lot of not so IT literate users, so he's going to catch a
few of them...

As an aside, what do most ISPs do if they find someone is infected and
is sending out stuff lke this?

(Yes, those dates in the email below are old - that's from the first
bunch of emails he sent out when I first complained - and yes, I have
checked the IP is still the same as of about 20 minutes ago)

Cheers - Neil G
