Symantec is reporting the mail servers of various popular email services such as Hotmail and Yahoo to be bogged down with a new worm, code-named Evaman. Symantec, has given this worm a critical warning and states that this worm could be as as dangerous as the MyDoom virus. Evaman occupies a false email address, sends itself to PC users as an attachment, and once the attachment is opened, the system turns into a host system to send out more emails with the same malicious code.
The headings are common to the ones users encounter everyday in their inbox - 'Failed Transaction' or 'Delivery Failure'. This worm has the potential to take control over Windows 95, 98, ME, 2000, XP, NT, and Windows Server 2003."
