JDFalcon37@XXXXXXX
I'm getting 4 or 5 virus e-mails a day from someone with an address that begins with "JDFalcon37". Does anyone know who that is?

Looks like X tunneller. Its a threading program I think out of japan so your internet access is untracable. Roughly the same speed as Modem as it bounces around the world in a couple of loops before sending out.
I could be wrong but its either X tunneler or a like program

The "xxxxxx" are the person's domain x'd out be me.
What I want to know is does anyone know a person that has that prefix as an e-mail address. If we can figure it out, then I can use that to figure out who's machine is infected.

May not be the case Chihawk. Some of the viruses can read an infected computer's list of email addresses and send off email using those email addys as the sender.
Could be anyone...

Thats his point. Hes trying to be nice in case this isn't someone sending them on purpose. Be that as it may, if its someone from here Mordel should just be able to run a search of the database for them.
Otherwise, respond to the email using a dummy account (ie go to yahoo and make an account just to email this person and say they are sending virii). If this don't work, repor it to the owner of the domain the email is coming from, and with the report send them the full header of the email.

I already know it's a live e-mail address...and I'm going on the presumption the e-mail did not originate from that person's machine.
What I'm looking for is to see who here may know this person...that will narrow down who's machine is infected.

Well, if we can't tell who it IS, we can at least tell who it ISN'T. It's certainly not me. I don't have any domain names like that, and none of the people in my address book do either.

That's a bad idea because instead of reading one post that says "I know who this is" there will be tons saying "it's not me".
I'm only looking for who knows who it is. It's pretty simple if you think about it...

Or at least theoretically simple. Unfortunately none of us seem to know who that belongs to.
Sorry we are not being very helpful Chihawk. We honestly would love to help.
