This couple of email have passed all the spam filters on my companies server and outlook. obviously, the senders domain is forged and these email did not originate from google or hallmark (I read the same email is using Twiiter and hi5 domains too).
These emails come with an exe inside a zip file, can you guess what it is? anyone? yes it is a virus.
The virus is detected as W32.SillyFDC.BDJ by Norton antivirus, and according to them it is a worm that is able to compromise Windows 98, Windows 95, Windows XP, Windows Me, Windows Vista, Windows NT, Windows Server 2003, Windows 2000
unless you are looking for trouble, delete this email, and every other email that has an exe attached.
If you have recieved a simillar email from another source please indicate it
Conficker worm
Conficker worm , also known as Downup, Downadup and Kido, is a computer worm targeting the Microsoft Windows operating system that was first detected in November 2008. The worm uses a combination of advanced malware techniques which has made it difficult to counter, and has since spread rapidly into what is now believed to be the largest computer worm infection since the 2003 SQL Slammer.
Removing Antivirus killer viruses
A new wave of virus such as Win32/Sality and many others attacks almost every famous antivirus and sabotages it in every possible way.
I have seen Kaspersky antivirus 7, Kaspersky 2009, norton 360, and mcafee burn to the ground because of these attacks.
The irony is that in some cases even the antivirus executable gets infected
The solution I found to clean your sorry system is as follows:

Virus preventing kaspersky antivirus from starting
Some new viruses have the ability to prevent kaspersky from starting, and from ever being installed.
The solution is simple go to the kaspersky installation directory (usually C:\Program Files\Kaspersky Lab\Kaspersky Anti-Virus 2009)
Find AVP.exe (not avp.com) and rename it to anything else, for example avpx.exe
start it! now it should work and take care of the virus preventing it’s start, if it didn’t find the virus quickly update it and perform a full scan.
If kaspersky still can’t be started, reinstall it, or just buy another antivirus.
Mabezat removal
Mabezat is the most angry, vicious and smart I have ever seen (yet). It is a virus (not a Trojan and not a spyware) it DOES infect EXE files along with .MSI files and executables inside archives. The executable infected is not destroyed but will cause a full infection before it is started in any PC.
