Thanks, I'm presuming it was her system based on the timing of me logging in, I did find vundo infecting her system, and after that I just quit monitoring and let the clean process run while I helped with the wedding rehearsal preparations.
I did change after I noticed from a password I'd had in place for several years ( my bad ) to a more complex pass phrase that qualifies as 'strong', so if it was a general gmail hack and not her system that should hold. Again, I'm sorry for anyone that this inconvenienced. Erik Goldoff IT Consultant Systems, Networks, & Security ' Security is an ongoing process, not a one time event !

ME2 asked early if anyone else had seen it from others and I have on a couple of other lists you are not on so it was just your girlfriend's laptop that was affected. -----Original Message----- From: Erik Goldoff [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Monday, April 26, 2010 8:52 AM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: my apologies to all I was in North Carolina to attend a wedding, and forgot my laptop power supply. I logged into gmail from my girlfriend's computer ( it did have Norton on it ) and within a minute a hundred or more of these spam messages flew out using my account. I immediately changed passwords and yanked Norton off her system and cleaned it up, installed AVG and malwarebytes. again my sincere apologies, and yes, embarassing for me. ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~ ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~ ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~
