The log file contains: 5/15/2003 9:54 AM Deleted SYSTEM C:\Documents and Settings\dcharlap\Application Data\Mozilla\Profiles\default\j123klyn.slt\Mail\pop.mindspring.com\Junk Exploit-MIME.gen.exe I didn't create this file, and I'm pretty certain it's not a Mozilla file. I would guess that (from the name) some bug in Mozilla's junk mail filtering allowed a rogue message to create this file, and it might've even been executed if my virus scanner hadn't deleted it. If I learn more information, I'll add it to this bug report. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce:

Sorry. I just re-read that log file. I think I misread it. It's not an executable called "Junk Exploit-MIME.gen.exe", but a message within the Junk folder containing the MIME.gen exploit that the virus scanner caught.
