    Notice to everyone! Don't open attachments!

    I am posting this on all the news groups I have posted on.
    Because...
    There is evidently people reading these messages that is
    Infected and don't realize it.
    And these news groups is the only obvious place that
    The viruses could be getting my email address with such
    Repetition.

    I have been inundated with virus laden emails to the
    Tune of 3MB worth in the last fifteen minutes.
    It has started this morning and is getting worse.

    I have a ten meg email limit but it gets close to maxing it
    Unless I clean out the in box every hour or so.

    The viruses has two fronts to it.
    And the infected computer evidently sends both forms
    To the available emails.

    One front has a snazzy logo and graphics.
    It tells you that includes a security patch, and
    for you to install it.
    THE SECURITY PATCH IS THE VIRUS!!!!!!!!
    It looks genuine Microsoft, but it isn't!!!!!!!!!!!.

    The other tells you that your email wasn't deliverable.
    And was sent back to you as an attachment with the return email.

    DON'T LOOK AT IT, IT'S THE VIRUS!!!!!!!!!!!!!
    The original email wasn't sent by you, it is just trying
    to get you to look at the attachment.
    It isn't actually a return email, it's a bogus return email.

    The people I have been getting the emails from have these
    Service providers.
    I can't tell the real sending email addresses, because they may be faked.
    But the service providers are certain.

    COX.NET
    Bellsouth.net
    Worldnet.att.net (my own provider)
    adelphia.net
    comcast.net
    charter.net
    pacbell.net
    wanadoo.nl
    insightbb.com
    telusplanet.net
    winfirst.net
    mchsi.com
    ionex.net

    Plus others that I can't make sense of.
    So, if you are in doubt, please check your computer for the sake
    Of my in box!

    Re: Notice to everyone! Don't open attachments!

    I have come to that conclusion also. I had 55 of them, each about 135k
    or so in size. Next time, I had 37. The first few posts I had actually
    had my correct e-mail address, before I realized that I forgot to
    REMOVEME from it...

    Make sure you use your antivirus software to check e-mail attachments
    before opening.

    Ditto. Unless I am expecting e-mail from someone I ignore the message.
    Most of it is smut mail.
