PhillyKev 0 #1 February 4, 2004 Just got the virus sent to my personal (non dz.com) email. It says it came from Kallend. However, this virus will look through your address book and send itself to one person and make it look like it came from another person in your address book. So, someone who has my excite.com email address, and kallend's email address has the virus. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I've been getting a bunch of these messages sent to me too, but our university mail server removes the virus before it reaches the inbox. I blame Bill Gates and Outlook!...

If you keep your address book in a text file you are golden when it comes to almost any of the virus that use the address book to spread. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

WOW...that stuff gets me pissed off. sorry it got you but, that make sense.... I had to get an update and go thru my stuff, because a company said to my ISP that I was spamming. I had not ben on line for 3 of the days they said I did it and said I had to buy new Norten, I said If they can track crap to me then they can track where the FUCK it came form and stated the involvment of the BCI would come in 24 hrs. while I had to be of-line as I'm in an on line "U" right now. I know how important it is but, I agreed to stay off line as they threatened me as to only trace for a business but not a residential customer. If it was the phone company I work for (I live out of territory), I would force the trace work to be done. THese piece of crap Co.s that CLEC in other areas do nothing for residential customers and I have proof of how their budget is targeted (one of the "who cares" part of my job)._______________________________ If I could be a Super Hero, I chose to be: "GRANT-A-CLAUS". and work 365 days a Year. http://www.hangout.no/speednews/ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
