| 191507 | 2003-11-13 04:33:00 | Welcome to the club beetle. Just veiwing the e-mail could infect your system. No its probably not new. Btw how did you get on with Open Office? | mark.p (383) | ||
| 191508 | 2003-11-13 04:34:00 | did a little digging and had a look through mailwasher, and apparently Xtra spam /virus alerted it to say it had an atachment which the WORM / SWEN virus was detected and deleted, so that means Xtra is on the job.... so its deleted, and blacklisted, all good. the header sorta gives it away but the email addy that its using should be a big hint for all people (i hope) beetle |
