Virus

[Northlander]

Everyone beware! There is a Virus out and they are sending it disguised as Duluth Guys adress.
Duluth Guy if you are trying to reach me send it concerning St.Louis River. Then I will open it.

I got one a while back that said it was from Rick at FM. My yahoo mail detected that the attachment had contained a virus so I deleted it and sent Rick an email asking him if he knew about it. He did not respond?

Strange things happen in these small internet camps.............

Northlander,
I have your email address from 2 years ago (used to use X-Eyed as my login name) saved, that must be it.

I didn't send it! Delete it~

Is the title 'Fishing' because an possible email just came in my inbox from a couple?

Everyone needs to be sure that their anti-virus software is up to date. That means either going to the software vendors website and downloading the latest virus defnitions or doing a liveupdate of some sort depending on the software vendor.

It looked funky so I just deleated them. They sent about 20 in a row. I deleted every one! Nobodys fault but the a holes sending them.

I got one last week that said it was from Rick. I emailed him and he responded that he didn't send it. I have been getting them daily from different people before deleting them I add the sender to my blocked list. Norton grabs them all the time today's came from someone with a state.mn.us address.
When in doubt throw it out.
Its gotta be those dang al-Qaeda !!

Theres spoofing programs that will search the web for email addys. Your email addy is a hot commodity. Once these guys get your addy they're usually sold to sites for mass spam emails. Or you get some geek that wants to take down mail services by overloading the system by sending massive amounts of mail with or without a virus attached.
If you have to post your email use dot com instead of .com at the end along with at instead of @

I ran a Full System Scan with my anti-Virus program it did find one and deleted it. Sorry again, I have my anti-virus program to update automatically. I used to work in I.T. so this chaps me a little~
