Has anyone else had this problem??

Today I have received 2 emails to my hotmail account from different mail delivery systems telling me I've tried to send emails containing viruses (one was a worm fool thingymajiggy), one was from Australia, the other I can't remember! I've changed my password so this will hopefully help!! Any comments??:dead:

Doubt that changing ur password will make any difference as that wont stop mails being sent to your account

I had the Mail Delivery Virus sent too.
Got 2 messages saying a message i had sent was undeliverable, then on the 3rd it sent a virus.
Thankfully Norton picked it up though.

I'm receiving about 5 worm viruses a day right now. So many people have infected PC's sending them out to my company email but we all run Macs!!:D

My computer has been very ill with viruses recently and I nearly threw it out of the window :mad: AND yes I do have virus protection but these ones seem to sneak through when you're just surfing. It's driving Willie nuts :D Time to get a MAC :clown:

I think good protection is the only answer. I am getting updates from Norton almost on a daily basis. So far it seems to be catching the sh** that is being sent to me.

I am still being sent loads at work. They are all removed before they get to my inbox though, mainly W32/Netsky.B-mm in '1733318_3X_AZ-S_PA2__ps.pif. None at home though!
