2 more kitty (storm worm) gone undetected by many scanner

I received similar email last week where 15 out of 32 malware scanners will detect or trigger an alert if found or being downloaded in the system.

Today, I got 2 more kitty greetings.  Result is 10 out of 32 scanners will detect or trigger an alert:

kitty1021vt 

kitty1021vta

kitty1021vtb

kitty1021vtc

Preview of emails:

previewkitty2

Whenever I send file to VirusTotal.com I always let them distribute the sample to AV companies so they can add it to their detection.  Let's hope those will be detected soon as it is out-there.

Users need to make sure they are patched, they have the security tool configured to get the updates automatically and most important do not click on anything.

# Norton blocked kitty... finally!; Less AV detects it.. including NOD32?

Norton Antivirus of Symantec is one of the 32 scanners that failed to detect the variant of Storm worm
