Microsoft is bombing me! help! help!
 

Hi,
in few hours I have received 200 emails with attachements from
Microsoft.

Microsoft Critical Patch
Current Security Upgrade
Last Microsoft Update
New Security Update and many others

Surely it is a virus or worm. How can I deleye that virus?
I have used some Tools come FixSbigF.exe, stinger.exe e FixKlez.com
but without success. Is there a Tool for this virus or worm so that I
can eliminate it?
thanks Fogar

Me too: many such Emails with long attachments purporting to originate from
either MailerDaemon or Microsoft itself. You can recognise them by the long
attachment , about 140kb, and the words Microsoft, Security, Bug, MS etc.

I am able to read the sender/subject/length etc, and thus delete them before
they actually enter my Email InBox.

Ok,

I have checked and no sign of it, but still getting **** loads of e-mails.
Excuse swearing! If a friend had it, would they then be sending it me? i.e.
I have not got virus, but mate ahs and that's what's sending everything?

I've just received 20x odd Emails (Worms) stating their from Microsoft but
not that I would've opened them anyway, Norton killed them all !!!

DON'T OPEN ANY ATTACHMENT EVER FROM MICROSOFT AS THEY NEVER SEND OUT
INDIVIDUAL EMAILS.

It seemed as soon as I logged off MSN Mesenger - it all stopped, let's hope
it does... I have Sophos and Kaspersky running now just in case

You are not alone. Since Microsoft is not likely to email you or any of us
just block Microsoft in the message rules and a few other words like
update,patch etc.

Re: Microsoft is bombing me! help! help!
 

I have the same problem, getting tons of these type of messages today.

Are we all in agreement that this is because the computer checking the
e-mail is infected with the Swen virus, or like many of the previous
viruses, the e-mail user's address is listed in someone's else's
address book who is infected?

I checked my system registry, and didn't find a trace of the virus.
I also haven't seen any pop up windows from Microsoft or anything like
that.

where does all this e/mail generate from is it just randomly sent from
somewhere like spam mail? or is it generating from a friends computer
which could be infected?

just yesterday this stuff starting filling up my hotmail junk box and
using up all my storage.
