Today was a sad day for AMX’rs, we were hit by a simple teaser instant message worm. It was sad to see how many took the bait, over half of our 250 employees clicked the link and installed the worm. Even after 3 security warnings…simply crazy. This was not on my schedule to have over 500 emails, 30 phone calls, and several IM’s in just a few minutes. I think I may have to start sending out fake worms monthly to get them used to saying “no”. If it looks phishy then it’s most likely a hook.

You know what they say. The early bird gets the worm. Thanks for the fishing pointer. We will try to learn to just say no. It does help keep your job secure. Lots of work.
