Klez Virus

Post by CPTino3001 »

I've gotten several emails from dmbtabs.com users that Norton found to be infected with the klez virus...It must be going through everyone's adress books who are infected...Just a little note...be careful about emails...

This has come around again - I now get about 3 a day, some from dmbtabs users, some just random people. I figure it's from an email harvester that's just spoofing email addresses that it gets from the memberlist here, but just to be safe everyone should do a full virus scan.

I too have been receiving emails infected with klez, primarily from users on this site. I get one every two days or so. As stated, I'm sure its just an email harvesting deal, but everyone should be careful. Just make sure you know what you're opening when you open an attachment.
