Warning Viruses

craig k. Nov 24, 2003 01:40 PM

I just wanted to let everyone know, I have been sent 3 emails in the last 24hrs. containing viruses. One from theunicorn7000 RE: by kingsnake.com one from reptiles RE: global fauna, inc The other I just ignored and deleted, but now it would seem as though there is a trend developing. I know nothing about computers, but my norton antivirus caught both of them. These were sent after I posted a snake for sale on kingsnake. Has anyone else gotten these? Just thought I would make everyone aware. Craig Kade

I'm not sure they were directed from your classified ad due to the fact that noone can send you an attachment unless they have your email address. Say if someone emailed you a question on your ad and you responded to them then they can send you a virus in the form of an attachment.

I am not sure what is going on, I am now up to 5 that got flagged all say they have W32.Klez.H@mm virus. Not all my messages have had these, if anyone reading this is trying to contact me I apologize if I have not responded to your email. Maybe it is a problem with norton anti virus maybe it is just me. I just wanted to let people know to pay attention. I am not opening any of the files. I did a full system scan and came up with nothing. Sometimes I wish I knew a little more about these darn confusers, I mean computers. Craig
