Hi John, I got a copy of it, too. I know of no [EMAIL PROTECTED] And obviously I didn't send it, even though the name on it preceding the email address was my name. This virus, if you've been reading about it, is one of those opportunist worms, that takes information from an infected party's computer, as well as addresses from his address book, and sends out it's nasty message and virus. I don't have a PC, therefore I can't become infected. My name must have come from someone else's address book!
The usual caveat is: don't open any .exe or any other email attachments, unless you know the sender. By adding a fake sender name that you might know from somewhere, they hope to entice you to open the attachment. On stuff like that, if I'm unsure of the sender's address, I send him an email based on the address I DO have, see if they sent it. Presumably that's what you're doing now. Smart! Nope. Wasn't me. keith whaley [EMAIL PROTECTED] John Coyle wrote: > > Keith, I got one purporting to come from you, with the following in the > headers: > Return-Path: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Received: from smtp.infinex.com ([64.147.166.17]) > HTH > John Coyle > Brisbane, Australia
