Firezapper
I just wanted to check with you about a suspicious email I got from you or your account. It's titled "eager to see you" and is quite large for a text email at 122K.
I thought it might be a virus or worm and emailed copies of itself to everyone in your address book, which as we all know can sometimes happen without you knowing it.
I have not opened it, Norton can not scan my hotmail account. It's auto-protect feature should capture it if it is opened but that's taking a big chance. If I can foward it to my other account I might be able to scan it.
Just thought I would post this in case others have gotten the same thing, otherwise I wouldn't go annoucing to the whole world you has emailed me.

Please let me know, if this is something you meant to send me.

 

It's the KLEZ.H WORM -- DO NOT OPEN IT

The only thing about Klez is that it replicates itself and makes it appear as if it's coming from someone's computer (ie firezapper) whereas it really came from someone's computer that had firezapper's email address stored on the computer.

Basically, it spoofs itself to make you think it's coming from someone else. This makes this virus VERY VERY difficult to trace and you'll probably not ever know who sent the email (plus, the person who sent it probably doesn't know that he/she sent it). I get about two or three emails containing the Klez worm from members on f150online and 'the other f150 site' per week. It's almost pointless to respond to the email because, like I said, that's not who sent it.

That's what I thought. Thanks for the tips.
