> The new virus that seems to going around doesn't have to infect your machine-when it goes in through someones e-mail it copies all their addresses and sends the virus out using those addresses, so it actually didn't come from that person. It is just using their address to mask where it really is coming from. Does that make sense? Russ says that he has Nortons protecting his machine and he is clean. It isn't coming from him-just using his e-mail address. I can send an e-mail out and put in a different return address.
No, that doesn't make sense. For your explanation to be correct, the virus copies the address book, sends it to another computer, then sends out e-mails from the "other" computer. His computer is still infected. What happens is the virus generates e-mails from his computer using his address book.
