The data security company
Norman ASA warns against the network worm Fizzer. The worm
sends itself to addresses found on the victim's computer -
in the address book and other sources. It also sets up a
backdoor functionality with connection to an IRC (Intern
Relay Channel) server.
The worm uses a large
variety of different subject lines, body texts and
attachment names, full details of which can be found at
www.norman.com.
Norman Virus Control
with definitions files from 12th of May 2003 or later
detects all known variants of the worm. Users are
encouraged to update their Norman Virus Control to the
most recent version immediately.
