I get regular virus emails from Atrocities(AT)ast mod(DOT)com all the time.

The virus is using random names from the infected hosts address book and forging the senders name. I sincerely doubt that the emails you are getting are actually coming from Fyron. As I said, most likely a seperate source is infected and the virus is forging the senders name.

And PLEASE do not post actual email address on the forum. A troll or forum bot might dig them up and spam them. Very bad.

If you are getting these constantly then maybe you ought to look at the message 'source' to get the headers and find out where they are actually coming from. It sounds like some poor sap doesn't even know his computer is infected and it's probably acting as a 'zombie' in someone's DDOS network as well as sending out spam.

I get the same messages to both my Atrocities and StarTrekMod accounts. So that is most likely true. Someone who has both of those addresses in their email is most likely sending the virus emails and doesn't even know. Or worse, doesn't care.

Shame on you! Buy an anti virus program, or use the free on line ones to sweep your machine!
