Hi,

It seems that open Samba (Linux) shares are also affected -- possibly
because the Samba server is emulated as a Windows NT 4.2 Server? I just
searched the shares for *.eml and *.nws and deleted the respective files.
It seems as though not all shares were affected, just the ones that had FTP
access.

 Regards,
  Avinesh
