It came from a reliable source... I subscribe to CloudEight for stationery
That is good. I neve heard of them, but if you feel comfortable with them, then I am sure it is right.
Cloud8 notifies subscribers of the status of those viri that are of high importance, etc. Then they recommend running a scan, etc.
Very nice of them to do so.
What I was so proud of was Avast! being recommended as one of the best.
IT IS THE BEST! ;D
Weird thing, though, is that I am getting what appears to be blank email...no sender and no subject. these I forward to my isp and delete...although avast! shows them to be clean.
Um.....Did they show attachments? Do not open them without subject or header information. The email still can bare a virus hidden in the html header info.
At the same time, I have to do something more about spam! Yesterday the total count was close to 300...
You need to first contact your ISP and have them look into it. You can also install an anti-spam filter. Go to www.webattack.com or www.wantdbest.com. There are a few good selections. Contact Technical for advice. He can help you.

After this post, I must go as you know, but I could not without helping a freind.

and I thought I had a layered defense as suggested ???
We will need to reevaluate your layered defense, but spam is annoying not dangerous.

I must go.
Bye to all…
