Check your systems. I recieved .zip files from the both of you. If you're not infected, then I'm not interested in any Spice Girls videos or Screen savers. Thanks anyways. [:D]

It's become pretty apparent that we are under attack by some e-mail hacking scuzzies!

Look at hielo's post to me!

I recieved an e-mail a couple of days ago with AR15 lingo in the address line. Anti-virus prog snagged it. I wiped it out without examining it, however. Think I'll update the A/V definitions again, though.

Vinnie, [email protected] is me. I received at least 3 virus-infected e-mails in my Yahoo account this week, but I deleted them all without opening. So, I never ran those infected attachments on my system. And I've been running virus scans every day since then.

I think some lame brain is just getting e-mail addresses from our profiles and sending us all viruses.

In any case, I'm pretty confident you didn't get anything from me. My system is pretty well protected.

Thanks Matt. I was just looking to give you a heads up. I didn't open it and I didn't even think of you guys until I got the one from Satcong. SO I figured I'd post here to let you know.

Here are two other threads about this-this might be a virus that can obtain e-mail addresses from sources other than address books-but I really don't know much about this stuff.

Norton Anti Virus has a warning about a Klez virus that sounds kind of like this

Oh, I already e-mailed Goatboy about this yesterday, his response is on one of the above threads.

i received FOUR system alerts today from the ar15.com mail. two from the same person. i recognized 2 of them as ar15.commers.

here's my question: for those getting the alerts are they the email addys you have posted here or are you getting them on other email accoutns. so far, my yahoo and outlook (isp provided) emails have remained virus/worm free (knock on wood!).
