A lot of Virus emails are generated by Virus infected 'Zombie' PC's that 'Spoof' the return or from address so even if they do tell you who it's from you are not going to be any the wiser. Just be thankfull they have deleted them before they get to your machine. They are not expecting you to 'do' anything about it. The message is auto generated as a courtesy by their email scanner. Cheers Paul. PC |

There are a lot of Spam mails going around that contain Trojans, to make
user's computers send out more Spam. There are also malicious emails going around. The best thing to do is to not open any Spam mail. Simply delete it. Let your virus scanner keep doing its cleaning of any malicious emails that it can find. -- JANA _____ "Sue Graney" <> wrote in message news:d991fd$hgt$...

Forgive my ignorance, but I >couldn't see who they were from and also what do you want me to do about it? Do you think we're your ISP? I'm in the U.S. If you're receiving messages from your ISP that they've deleted viruses to you, you probably won't get any useful info from them because, typically, viruses forge and at least my ISP's messages like that don't include the originating IP of the message, just the supposed sender. I just delete them. If you're receiving messages from other ISP's that you have sent virus email, try to see if they give information as to where the original virus message came from. If the original virus email came from dsl153.philadelphia.pa.verizon.net and you live in London, it is extremely unlikely you sent the message. As I said, viruses forge. I receive messages all the time that I "sent a virus" say from a Dutch cable modem even though I can see the Empire State Building out my window. If it is at all possible you did send the message, you might want to scan your computer for viruses. Joel Rubin |
