Virus Alert
#1

Someone that I have communicated with through 968engineerng.com has a computer virus.



I received two e-mails one minute apart that had suspicious attachments. One was my e-mail address and the other was files.zip. The subject was something like a returned message or failed delivery. These attachments contain executables.



I did not catch the virus as I am suspicious of everything like this and deleted them. BTW, my up to date Norton antivirus did not catch these on incomming email scan.



SO be aware of failed delivery e-mails that have attachmetns. <img src="/forum/images/smilies/968/sad.gif" class="smilie" alt="" />

The from address is not necessarily where it really came from as most viruses these days spoof the from address. You would need to check the header to see where it really came from.
