email virus?

so yea, i keep getting over 100 emails saying the SAME thing, something like “sorry i couldn’t forward your email, i’m giving up” and then others that say “heres your new account, click here to confirm” and they all have attatchments. how do i get rid of this? its getting REALLY annoying.

I dunno mang, but my hotmail acct. suddenly has over 100 new junk e-mails

Change your email address… :stuck_out_tongue:

Oh, and start using Thunderbird for your email client, or whatever they are calling it these days.It has a learning spam filter, and it works pretty well.

It also has the ability to read the source code of an email without executing anything that might be lurking there. I love using that feature to spot phishing attacks and send them back messages saying how they suck at life…

yeah its some sort of new virus, i have it too. Go figure…

check online, theres a way go get rid of it, but its a pain in the ass. I’m actually going to go look for it now.

I got those same ones from @yaga.com , over 200 really pissed me off
