I come from Singapore but find myself now living and working in the Netherlands, specialising in SMS 2003 / Configmgr 2007. I enjoy working and connecting people with computers and I hope I can share as much information as I can here through this blog.
“Computers do not just work like that, at the press of a button. From the moment a computer is switched on in your office, magic happens. That’s why you need an IT department and they do more than crawling under your desk to plug in that wire you kicked out.”

A few days ago on September the 9th, a newly discovered social engineering virus was detected by several anti-virus companies. This has also been reported through various media agencies. The virus spreads through email with the following email subjects:
"Just for You""Here you have"
Please do not open any mail with the above subjects. Always remember, it is better to be SAFE than sorry! :)

Organisations may want to take one preemptive step further by blocking all emails with the affected subjects through their gateways and blacklisting the URL used to download the toxic exploit.
That's all for this weekend, have a happy week ahead!
