A spokesman for Microsoft said the problem was discovered early last week, but no unit has yet to plan to fix this problem.
Sober virus first appeared in 2003 and can attack computers running Windows and force them to send spam again. Such continuous sending may result in servers being overloaded and reducing the network's processing speed. Last month, a variant of Sober was discovered when distributed via email attachments of old photos of your school.
