[United Parcel Scam Email]

I think you would have to execute the file within the zip to get infected and seeing as Norton stopped the zip from opening I would say you should be safe.

 

If you notice anything odd such as unexpected network activity then it would be advisable to post a Hijackthis log.

 

Any suspect attachments or files can be uploaded to Virus Total for a scan with several different av engines.

 

I did. I ran Mcafee and it caught 4 trojans, repaired 1, removed 1 and then I deleted one. The last one was listed but it gave me no option to repair, remove so I am not sure what my status is at the moment. It froze my Internet Explorerer and Windows Media palyer but both came back after I ran the scan.

 

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Hi,

I got this email today and unfortunetly we use UPS so much I opened it. When I clicked on the zip file nothing happened and my Norton alerted me that something was trying to change a registry & I blocked it. Does this mean I am not infected or do I need to call the Geek squad? Any help is appreciated.

Just got an email from a "United Parcel Service"

 

The attached word document is actually an exe in disguise and will unload malware if executed.
