Guest guest Posted July 24, 2002 Report Share Posted July 24, 2002 Dear We kirsty & Craig got hit by the KLEZ virus which sent random file to all users in the address book. Some may have a resume but he already has a job and this has now been cleaned off our PC. Sorry did not know how it was there. Got past the scanner. Regards Kirsty Re: Att: MDS This Virus Stuff Darlene, Hermii and everyone, I really didn't think someone was out to get me, but we should all be aware that someone is using our e-mail addresses, and be very careful what we do open. I ran my Norton Antivirus program to scan for any viruses last night and after looking through the files I guess this file did catch some of the problems, namely WORMS, TROJANS etc., which are worse than just a virus. (Angel mentioned these yesterday.) Hermii, I didn't want you to think I was blaming you, but I knew someone was using your address and wanted you to be aware of it. Also, I believe one of the other names on the "from address" was (turner@...). Kirsty should be aware of this too. Everyone take care!
