La habilidad de los autores de virus

La habilidad de los autores de virus para la “ingeniería social” sigue produciendo anécdotas graciosas. Me acaba de llegar este mensaje, acompañado por un attachment que, por supuesto, era un virus:

Subject: E-mail account disabling warning.

Dear user, the management of Magicaweb.com mailing system wants to let you know that,

Our main mailing server will be temporary unavaible for next two days, to continue receiving mail in these days you have to configure our free auto-forwarding service.

(Por si alguien necesitara la aclaración: en el “Magicaweb.com team” no hay nadie más que yo.)

El algoritmo que genera la URL parece ser bastante estúpido. En las versiones que me llegan a otra dirección de email, cuyo dominio termina en com.ar, la “firma” aparece así:
