I have attempted to check the email addresses. However, in the bogus one I
am unable to check the email address. I have shift tabbed to the from field
and even tried to reply to see if it may show the email address, but it is
hidden. Thank you, and I will do the virus scan (SAS and MSE). After I
received the first one I do not know if using the Malicious Remover Tool
would find what I am needing or not, but after running this it came back
with no problems. Again thanks for your help.

Do a complete virus scan, Josh. Check the headers in your email client
to see if the addresses between the legit & bogus 1 differ.

Friends,
I have a professor that has been infected by a virus, he is aware
of
this, but this is what is happening: I receive emails containing the
lesson
plans for the next day that contains his full name. These lesson plans
come
from his school email address. I recently have started receiving emails
with
only his first name and last name "Tim Haskins" rather than the actual
email
that comes "Timothy Haskins". The first time I got this email I did not
pay
much attention to the way the email was listed as far as the name goes. I
clicked on the link and got a warning message saying this link is
possibly
infected so I aborted before proceeding and emailed him about this. The
email list his shortened name and then only the date.
Two questions arise out of this. One, if I add the shortened name to the
block list in OE will it still allow the actual emails to be delivered to
my
inbox? If it will still allow the email with the full name to be
delivered
how do I go about adding this bogus email to my block list, I am sure
that
it is probably just a click of a button while sitting on the open email
but
exactly where is this selection found? Second question I have been
getting
these emails on a regular basis have I already been infected? If so will
MSE
take care of this particular virus? I will continue to search Google for
the
answers, but any help offered on this matter will be greatly appreciated.
