Hi,
I have to apologize for the trojan horse that
somehow was sent to Kelly. I have been away and when I restarted the
postings I received an off list message that said it was from edward K
. I had replied to a post I saw prior to leaving here concerning
greg's saying he would be willing to * sing like a bird*. I had sent a
message to the thread and this from Edward seemed to reply off list to me
and it included an attachment which * he seemed to say I see now* that I might
be interested in seeing as he wanted my response to it. Ordinarily I would
never open any attachment from someone I didnt know and trust, but in this
instance I had no reason to not trust his email. It didnt open and said
something to the effect that it had an error in it. I opened this when I got
back on the 6 march. Today, I looked at it again wondering why it had an
error? I tried to open it again and within minutes my email began to act up
with attachments and all emails directed to me as if I had sent them to
me. A message came from norton antivirus saying I had a trojan horse in
my email program. My mcafee didnt pick it up it was someone elses that did. I
admit I have no idea what to do except run my anti virus program again and to
scan disk which I did.. I heard from greg that kelly had warned the list that
I had sent her a virus affected email.. I saw it in my outbox on an email that
edward and she had responded to about some game or challenge..This was sent
out before I came back on the list. The original email from edward was sent on
the 25 and I was already off the mailing and it didnt come in until I
returned. the only contact I had with you kelly was to read the email of your
posting. I have not sent anything to you and your email address isnt in my
outlook express as it would be if I had responded to this post.I do not know
where this attachment originated, but I think all of you and especially edward
should be aware it is out there and not to trust any of us unless we are sure
we are expecting an attachment..It ruined my day worrying how I might have
affected you kelly and anyone else I might have unintentionally responded
to.
