Friday September 5th 10pm-4am, ID21+
The SoBig virus, which is the sixth and latest strain of a virus that first emerged in January, spreads through Windows PCs via e-mail and corporate networks. Besides clogging e-mail systems with messages carrying subject lines like "Re: Details" and "Re: Wicked screensaver," the virus also deposits a Trojan horse, or hacker back door, that can be used to turn victims' PCs into relayers of spam e-mail. this Friday we'll come through your back door and turn your brains into relayers of the trance virus.
