Guest guest Posted June 9, 2002 Report Share Posted June 9, 2002 Warning ..... Please Read !! I have not read PSC posts for the last three days but this morning I logged on and saw a post with my name as the sender. It was post #39239 Subject: A Very Nice Game. I opened the post and I saw it contained an " Attachment " which I did NOT open. The following post # 39240, was a WARNING that Post 39239 contained a VIRUS !! I went back and deleted the post with the attachment and virus. How are these POSTs being sent ???? In the past three months, I have also received emails to my private email address from Barb and Barby that that were NOT really sent by them. DOES ANYONE KNOW WHAT IS GOING ON ??? Has this happened to anyone else ??? This is pretty scarry ..... not being able to trust what is being sent within this Group. If anyone else has experienced anything unusual and knows how to FIX IT, please let me know. Thank you, Irene Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted June 10, 2002 Report Share Posted June 10, 2002 Irene, We have received a virus that somehow sends messages to the people in your address book. Mine got into my earthlink account. I think I opened it once because I recognized the name in the address and it said that it had instructions on how to get rid of it. Well I don't know how to get rid of it and have gotten afraid to open everything. When that game thing supposedly from you there was no attachment, thank goodness because I would probably opened it. Why do some people have to be so evil. Warning, my norton antivirus catches it and quarantines it so I can delete it but those using yahoo because that e-mail goes through the web your antivirus check won't check it, but if you try to open an attachment, it gives you the option of running it through your virus checker which you always should do.
