From Chihwak, he alerted me to a Virus in my e-mail system call the Trojan Horse Dialer. I have to appologize profusley(sp) if I spammed you, I really didnt know I had the virus. And thank you for the AVG info I used that to quarentine it and (hopefully) get rid of it. The funny thing is, I dont have any of your addresses in my e-mail system.
Ahhh got to love hackers with nothing better to do than screw around.
And if it dosent stop please let me know I am hoping that the first run gets rid of it but well see.

Haven't received anything since last night, so it looks pretty good so far.

Good to hear. I think I got it but give it a couple more days.

Well, I jsut cleaned out my mailbox, over 200 messages since Friday, and as soon as I was done one more popped up in my mailbox.
What a stupid virus maker, I mean who could not recognize those emails as viruses, I mean a bunch of emails from a bunch of different people with the same subjects, and multiple emails with the same subjects form the same people? I mean come on.
But if his gial was to crash email servers, well then . . . thats another story.

I agree. And I truly am sorry Alex. Hopefully AVG will keep it form happening again. I have it on my wifes comp as well and so far it has 3 viruses as well.
Its interesting you get people that really know their stuff but as the saying goes "Idel hands are the devils workshop". Or something to that effect.

As I posted in the "Virus alret" thread, I got 7 more this morning from the same IP...either your machine isn't the one pumping them out or you still have it.

Well I removed it with AVG. So unless that isnt as current as I had hoped I may still have it but I dont show having anymore viruses in the my syste, Ill run another test though.
Also watch out for Byebyeads. It appears to be a virus type program designed to show you the dangers of using xp. you have to go to the site and tell them to remove you. very annoying.
