We were attacked yesterday around noon by some A$$Hole from some company called Intercage. He responded to or created around 19 posts here between 11:57 and 12:20 pm NGDF time. Each of thes posts contained the word News in the subject line, and a link to a porn site. (The original posts conatined numerous links).
Opening the e-mail itself is not dangerous, the e-mail was written by WebBBS and doesn't contain anything nasty. However, it appears that the links given (or at least some of these links) may take you to websites that advantage of the "WMF exploit" and do bad things to your computer. (I have no idea about what that is, I think it's supposed to be patched, but someone else will have to fill in the details).
Most, if not all of these links are now dead.
John West deserves credit for catching the bugger pretty quickly although 18 messages did get through. Nine more were blocked before the twit gave up and went off to bother someone else.
He *should* be blocked now, at least I certainly hope so, but if anyone sees anything funky please don't hesitate to let Mike, John or I know about it.
Sorry for the inconvenience, and I hope no one was hurt by this.
