Looks like they stole the Wincustomize layout for the ICQ list and just took a bunch of skins with it. The Winamp section is still all photoskins and the other layout (like the last pages of the ICQ section). They are probably in the process of updating their site with Alex's layout and skins from here. Someone needs to let these guys know it's not okay to steal...

seems they didn't want to steal any of mine This is a great example of the *other* skinning world. They have a link on the front page to something called EZ Themes that will automatically upload your skin to over 60 sites like this. yikes...

The file attachment is a randomly chosen file from the host computer so each mailer will have a different subject line and a different attachment. So far all of them I've gotten (the sircam virus) have been over 200k. I also got one called the W95MTX matrix worm/virus combo a few days ago. That one came in about 7 times (it shows up as two consecutive emails) and I've gotten the sircam about thirty times so far.

I thought I had escaped this one but then, yesterday I got mailed a different virus/worm combo that comes in two consectutive emails. It's the W95MTXdr virus and came from someone in Argentina who had asked me about where to send winamp skins. And then today I started getting the W32sircam virus that this thread is about. The sender is unknown to me and the subject line is "Capital Gain 99". In both cases my virus scanner did not catch it. I don't believe I've been infected but I

I've heard of problems getting into the message board, but I haven't experienced it myself. There's a lot of problems this week with Internic causing thousands of DNS problems, today Q-West has major problems on the west coast (DSL provider)causing most of their customers to be offline, and then there's this worm that's supposed to start in an hour from right now and slow down the internet for most users http://news.cnet.com/news/0-1003-200-6616583.html?tag=mn_hd although those things u
