      Someone sent an email using our email system that has the W32.Klez.H@mm worm. I don't know if it was intentionally sent to us or not. It is a very sneaky worm and my anti-virus deleted the damn email so fast I couldn't figure out where it came from. Everyone please run your anti-virus program. If you don't have one there is a great online virus scan you can use. Here are the links.

      This is the thing. This worm can make it look like someone sent it but that person really doesn't have the virus

      Email spoofing
      This worm often uses a technique known as "spoofing." When it performs its email routine. it can use a randomly chosen address that it finds on an infected computer as the "From:" address, numerous cases have been reported in which users of uninfected computers received complaints that they sent an infected message to someone else.

      For example, Linda Anderson is using a computer that is infected with W32.Klez.H@mm. Linda is not using a antivirus program or does not have current virus definitions. When W32.Klez.H@mm performs its emailing routine, it finds the email address of Harold Logan. It inserts Harold's email address into the "From:" portion of an infected message that it then sends to Janet Bishop. Janet then contacts Harold and complains that he sent her an infected message, but when Harold scans his computer, Norton AntiVirus does not find anything--as would be expected--because his computer is not infected.

      This is true, it will mask itself and make it look like it has infected a system when it has not.

      Thanks, I already have 3 so far (I used the 'houseCall' anti-virus), I guess for some reason my computer did not detect it...damn...

      Thanks for the heads up.

      PS. I seem to be getting A LOT of emails lately that definitely look like viruses, all with the same message, luckily the attachment is already deleted by my anti-virus.
