3) Another pop-up, Spyware Alert âSecurity Warning!â it reads:
security warning! worm.win32.netsky detected on your machine. this virus is distributed via the internet through e-mail and active-x objects. the worm has its own smtp engine wich means it gathers e-mails from your local computerand re-distributes itself. In worst cases this worm can allow attackers to access your computer, stealing passwords and personal data. This process should be removed from your system.
