Re[3]: Virus Scan msg on mail check - Exploit-MIME.gen.exe
I had the same thing happen recently, and it turned out to be explorer.exe, a virus thingie that resides in the Windows Fonts directory. You can read about it in the various online virus files. AVG detected and healed two virus thingies that apparently sprang from explorer.exe and were in my Win32 folder, but as near as I can tell, the system recognizes it as a system file and so opposes deletion. My guru had to go into command lines (I think that's what you call it? The little black box where you use DOS or something similar?), rename the file, and then delete it. I also have the free AVG version and have been perfectly happy with it until this happened. Now, we'll see how happy I continue to be. :) Anna MM> Each time, I received a msg saying that my computer had a MM> virus and that I should run AVG. Which I did.

Can I just ask - what surprises me in what you have said is that you don't have a sheep dip server dealing with the mail first? That would enable all virus loaded files to remain on that computer and only notifications to be sent to the Postmaster. -- Best regards, Mike Current version is 1.62 | "Using TBUDL" information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
