Bogus E-Mails Contain New 'Sober' Worm

Nov 23, 9:15 PM (ET)


VIENNA, Austria (AP) - Austria's equivalent of the FBI said Tuesday that it is investigating a flurry of bogus e-mails sent in its name to people in Austria, Germany and Switzerland.

The Federal Criminal Investigations Office said the e-mails warn recipients that they are illegally in possession of pirated software, and that the messages contain the computer-crippling "Sober" worm.

The agency warned people who receive the e-mails not to open the attachments, and said it has nothing to do with their circulation.

An investigation is under way, the agency said.
