need some help with computer virus
 

I am getting a lot of email (over 100 emails) from the same 3 unknow people every time i checked my emails. Everytime, after i get it from my email server host , I click on "check email" the same number of email appear in my email server again. It never stop, seems like everytime i took the mail off my server, they RE-Fill again. Just wondering what is going on here and what should I do? Did I get the virus ,did the my mail host get the virus or those 3 people get the virus?

thanks in advance

2*your server or the place u host is infested
i turned off the mail server for 2 days and it stopped

Change emails

They are infected, not you if you didn't open any attachment.

Add the address to the "block sender" feature if you use Outlook Express.
If their address changes, then right click on the message, select properties, then message source and take a look from wich ISP it ius coming.

Go to that ISP in your browser, and send them at least 10 emails to:

abuse@
spam@
info@
sales@
webmaster@
service@


etc....


See what that gives in a few hours.

No changes???? repeat the emails to the ISP with a phrase like:

"You do not seem to care about this, so you will not mind if I paralyse your system with a flood of emails with attachment."

It works most of the time...:

A real situation:
==============
From: Dalibor Vrbesic <[email protected]>

Please contact the above individual and get him to clean up.

If not, please cancel his account ( he is not responsible enough to have an internet account...)

If I still receive all these emails ( that overflow and fill my boxes), I wiull use my own ways of blowing him of the face of the internet.


Olease do act and take this seriously.

Answer from them:

> Please contact the above individual and get him to clean up.

The correct address for security related incidents is [email protected]. Please
include all the message headers in your report.

do you know where can I check for such setting?
i can't find it in outlook express

thank again

sorry, punt!!

can someone tell me where i make sure if "saving email on server" is click or not"

thanks

Open Outlook Express,
Go to "tools" , "Accounts"
Then double click on the mail account,
Then click on the "advanced" tab at the top,
Then look at the bottom of the window at "delivery"
Uncheck "Leave a copy of message on server"
Check your mail, it will recieve them again,
then recheck it if you want.
It is an O.E. problem,
No Worry....

Hope this helps..................

use outlook rules to forward this crap to the trash folder
