[ modified pubcam script | original pubcam script | other stuff ]

things sircam has sent me

I found out about this script on ntk and downloaded it from http://www.hartnup.net/pubcam/pubcam. basically, it takes a mailbox full of random attachments sent by people infected with sircam, strips the attachments of the sircam virus and generates an html page of the stuff sent to you. the guy that wrote it has his own page up that's been produced by this script: http://www.hartnup.net/sircam/. (if you know of any other places where people have put up lists of attachments from sircam, I'd appreciate it if you let me know.)

I made a few small changes made to the original script, mostly affecting the html output and look of the page. the biggest difference is that the script originally removed the last part of each email address to save the sender's privacy, but it's now been commented out. I've never heard of any of these people and I reckon that the only way they would have my address in their address book is if they'd sent me spam before, so I'd rather their addresses were public.

the modified copy of the script can be found here: pubcam.txt

to "lisaS" (real name "laura selby", if that's her cv down there): I hope you got it all sorted with lee. after spending all that time drafting letters to him, it would be a shame to think he still doesn't know about the other bloke.

If you have the SirCam virus, do yourself a favour:
  1. Configure your mail reader so it doesn't hide double extensions. SirCam sends things called (e.g.)"my secrets.doc.exe". Your mail reader might hide the ".exe" so you think it's just "my secrets.doc", and open it.
  2. Think carefully before opening attachments anyway
  3. Get an antivirus program, and run it. And keep running it regularly.
