I wonder if it's cryptolocker.

It is.

I had 3 users open that attachment.

Since we dont pay those people, I had to wipe the drives.

The real deal comes via snail mail.

We get those things at work near constantly for years and years. Are you honestly just getting your first one?

Do you have mega awesome filtering or do you just not use email much? I want to know.

It's the first one I've actually confirmed since it was an attachment. I've gotten others that probably were, but they were links that I didn't pursue.

Well, I was curious and wanted to see the code.

Some of them actually have the decryption key in the source code.

You're right, a safe came in the mail today with a letter saying to put my hard drive in it and spin the combination lock.

I was referring to the bills for using the tollway.

I prefer to get my malware the old fashioned way, from lesbian porn.


If it was good enough for Grandpa it is good enough for me.

Oh LOL
Well, Georgia doesn't have EZ Pass and the only toll road (a tunnel actually) I've used in the last several years was in England last month, and that I paid at the toll booth.

I occasionally check my gmail spam and find hundred of e-mails. I honestly don't think anything with an attachment has made it through the filter.

Gmail does a really good job of zapping spam. It's like there's a little man in my computer reading my stuff before sending it along to my inbox.
