Re: Virus Advisory PLEASE READ

The chances are that the virus is cloning the hosts address book and using the names in it to send out FAKE emails pretending to be from someone you may or may not know.
In this case the email from Captain Kowk was more or likely a result of this and not sent by him.

Thank Richard, I agree that it was more than likely not something that he even knew happened. It probably came from someone elses computer who had him in his mailing address book.
Just wanted people to be advised of this, since I got so many in one day I kind of figured something was up.
