    How Do I Get Rid Of This Fucking Virus!

    I keep getting thousands of viruses sent to me per day and it seems like my e-mail is sending out viruses as well because I keep getting back notifications from people (out of office replies). This is becoming a big problem for me, and my Norton Internet Security thing takes like 30 minutes to download all the mail and delete it all.

    Any suggestions people? I am getting desperate here.

            You probably aren't sending the virus. The way the latest worm works is it grabs all addresses from a users address book and chooses one of those addresses and enters it into the "From" field. You're probably clean.

            But Norton is a joke these days. Check out Panda http://www.pandasoftware.com

                I got the same thing. Unless you actually opened an attachment, you are probably clean too.

                It's the SoBig worm. Pain in the ass. Someone that has you in their address book or your email in their cache has the virus so it makes it look like you are sending it.

                edit: I type too slow.

                      Nortons removal tool for the SoBig worm!

                      Had the same thing. This removed it from my system. If you have the worm it will find it and remove it.
