Re: [css-d] Email Virus
I checked (and deleted) my e-mail after work and went to bed at 9:30 am Monday morning. When I got up at 3:30 pm I had more than 800 undeliverable or returned mail messages that had accumulated in my inbox--most with attachments in the original. Up until this, the most I would see is 30 or so messages. Is this situation related?

Re: [css-d] Email Virus
It's not for me to say on this forum what's right and wrong, but IMO it's very much off-topic and should be dealt with privately. If you really feel that this forum's at fault, may I suggest taking it up with the List Administrator. However, it's almost certain that the forum itself is not generating 'bad' messages. Now to go against my own comment. Nobody else seems to be getting 'bad' messages from this forum. My emails are heavily filtered, but I will always get a report if anything's amiss, and I have not had even one bad one. :-) You do have adequate anti-virus software don't you? g Feel free to email me privately if I can help.

Re: [css-d] Email Virus
yes, sounds very similar. I had this virus 2 weeks ago, and had over 100 emails in a short period of time, not 800 though. every email has an attachment. I was also getting lots of blank emails, blank in both subject and from lines, and blank bodies. I just contracted this virus again last night and overnight got around 10 emails. I can't remember how i got rid of it before. I downloaded one or 2 free email virus protectors and did a system restore. Don't remember which one worked. If you find the solution, please let me know.

If my email account was being pegged with virus emails, Norton AV would be picking them up.

Re: [css-d] Email Virus
I have a special email set up for web development through Gmail and have been on several lists for a number of years. I have not received any virus laden emails that I know of.

Re: [css-d] Email Virus
I have been a member of this list for quite awhile (over 2 years I think) and I can say that I am not getting any virus e-mail's from this list. My mail is not pre-filtered for virus's, would it be possible to have one of these attachments forwarded directly to me? I'm not worried about virus's since I'm on a Mac and would be willing to take a look at it and see if I can figure out what it is.

Re: [css-d] Email Virus
What this sounds like to me is that a spammer harvested your email address and has spoofed it and sent out his or her spam emails. You are probably getting the bounce back/undeliverable notices. But yes, it is off-topic and I am as guilty. -- Thanks! Jeff Christopher Douris [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: = I checked (and deleted) my e-mail after work and went to bed at 9:30 am Monday morning.
