Loads of virii would do this.

I suggest that you try downloading, and installing another anti virus
scanner.  You never can have enough protection.


On my Win98, machine, I run three, and I still managed to get a NIMDA file
on my machine, although it did nothing, as I was not permitted to touch it,
mby two of the AV software apps.  The otherone did not even notice it.

Also, ensure the AV app is up to date.  That may help

Cheers

Sorry to bother you, but I can't find this on Symantic or related sites...

A fellow employee was checking his email today and became infected with a
virus that appears to have the following characteristic:
When he emails someone, it BCC's the message to the previous person he sent
a legit email to.

Also, he said outlook froze on him while he was doing his ritual forwarding
of humor emails this morning.

Norton AV doesn't detect anything. We are in the process of comparing his
profile to what was there at the last backup, but I was curious if anyone
had heard of this.

Thanks,
Chris Coakley
