Good Advice. That what I do. I've also sent an email to Ladynotes, advising her of this. Best Wishes In a message dated 12/3/2010 12:28:31 P.M. Central Standard Time, [email protected] writes:
I'm not sure but I seem to keep getting these emails from [email protected] and [email protected]. I do get an occasional one from someone else on the list. they seem to be all going through the QUAD-L Domain. I just delete them.

This type of virus is likely some bad software (malware) that is living on their machine, using their email server to send SPAM to everyone in their email address list. Since it's an "inside job", if they change their email password, the virus can get the newly updated password the same place it got it when it wormed-itself into place (probably after the victim got tricked into running the malware-installer program). Chances are that they'll need a high-powered anti-virus program, like from Norton or Kaspersky, to detect and remove it.

I just delete them as I know that a worm has gotten into someone's account and they opened a flood gate, without knowing it. I would hate to have that happen to anyone.
