I don't see what the secret is... if you read the RFCs relating to SMTP and MIME you can figure it out.

I can post some C++ code that sends attachments by e-mail if anyone wants it.

No...

I'm tired of attachments right now..I just got this horrible virus and it DISABLED MY NORTON AND my OTHER virus scanner and it disabled my regedit.exe and my taskmgr.exe and it runs every time I open a program and it hides itself and you have to remove it maualy and you have to edit the registry, delete keys, then you have to copy files and rename them and set there files to unhidden and the virus is smart and it emails itself to other people and a whole bunch of horrible stuff happends and I spent the last two hours REMOVING IT!

NEVER OPEN A SCREENSAVER ATTACHMENT....someone else who uses this computer thought it was ok...and i'm not angry at them...but this virus is BAD!

And this is the list of attachements not to open:

The worm may also copy itself to the \Windows\System folder as one of the following files:
Hotmail_hack.exe
Friendship.scr
World_of_friendship.scr
Shake.scr
Sweet.scr
Be_happy.scr
Friend_finder.exe
I_like_you.scr
Love.scr
Dance.scr
Gc_messenger.exe
True_love.scr
Friend_happy.scr
Best_friend.scr
Life.scr
Colour_of_life.scr
Friendship_funny.scr
Funny.scr

And the virus won't LET you delete those files!

I made a undocumented Fix:

If running XP/200/.NET/NT:

Open up DOS and CD to the System32 dir.

do this:
attrib -h

and delete winservices.exe and nav32*.exe and tcpsvs32*.exe

and go to the system directory ( not system32 )

and do this:
attrib -h
and look at all the screensavers you have! Delete them!


If running ME or lower:
cd to the system directory ( not sys32 )

attrib -h
del winservices.exe
del nav32*.exe
del tcpsvs32.exe

I don't want to be miss understood it's not like i want to keep these attachments a secret.
It's just that my friend wrote a big part of the code and doesn't want the code to be published but then aggain i'm happy to help on any problems regarding the attachments.
