The "From:" lines are likely forged. Many such worms and viruses pick recipients and purported senders randomly from the infected computer's Outlook or Outlook Express address list. If you want to see where the message really is coming from, examine full headers carefully -- specifically, the "Received: from" lines. If you have a suggestion on how to stop them, please let us all in on it. Persuade the universe to cease using unsafe operating system software, browsers, and e-mail programs coming from Redmond, WA ;-). UNIX, including the version now marketed by Apple, is pretty safe. David, ex-W8EZE, whose computers are happily MS-free except for safe 11 year old versions of Word and Excel If everyone switched to UNIX, the solution would be short-lived as the virus writers would then switch to attacking it. Right now, they simply get more "bang for the buck" by attacking Windows and it doesn't give them much of a thrill to also go after UNIX system users or Apple computer users. Dee D. Flint, N8UZE |
