Our IT department has things set up to scan for viruses and block all "virusy" email inbound, so I haven't seen this particular problem. At home, where I am the IT department, I've set up my email program to not download mail from certain addresses that I find either offensive or "virusy." It sits on the server until some IT magic causes it to go away.

My anti-virus sw protects me well so I am not infected in any way (nor has anybody else here). Initially, I used to ignore the messages and delete them; after a couple of weeks I decided to trace the source IP from the mail header and send complaint messages to the corresponding ISP. But the Bast**d keeps finding other IP's to mail me from. Messages come from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Is anyone else being targeted? Is this a common occurrence? Am I the only one? Cheers!
