Which would work, if only the 'From:' address in a virus really showed who the email came from. Sometimes you can work out who sent the mail by examining the rest of the headers, but most of the time there's just not enough information there. > My forum email > address is posted everywhere so they mostly are coming from people on > lists such as this, which is why I made the announcement. ... or from people who have visited a web page containing your email. Sobig trawls the browser cache for email addresses. Just how do you know who is sending you those virus-laden emails, anyway?
