Yeah, there have been a lot of viruses floating around lately. I have not gotten anything form you, but I get plenty of those fake mail-domain errors with MyDoom on it... and today I got an fake Juno e-mail that has another virus attached to it. I contacted Juno about that one... looks like they need to send out another security alert!

Do not open ANY attachments! Especially if the message tells you to.

Just got this e-mail last night:

Dear user of Gardei.com,

Your e-mail account will be disabled because of improper using in next three days, if you are still wishing to use it, please, resign your account information.

Advanced details can be found in attached file.

Sincerely,

The Gardei.com team https://www.gardei.com

Hmmm.... I did not know that my website offered e-mail service. And I have a team? I thought I was the only one doing the site? :confused: :D

Oh... and the attachment (information.pif) contains the W32.Beagle.J@mm virus.

That is the same gist of the 3 emails the admins received. Each had a different .pif files attached.

I received the e-mails but I believe Outlook detached the attachment. My e-mails didn't even have an attachment. :)

Of course I don't open anything that ain't from someone I know.

I don't even open attachment from folks that I *know* unless I am expecting a specific attachment...

If I get something from my sister, for example, that I wasn't expecting, I will get her on the phone befor I open it and if I can't reach her, I delete it and send her an email asking about it...
