Is anyone else being spammed by viruses???

One of my email accounts is copping 15 to 20 a day.

The reason I ask is it's the account specifically set up for the 4G site. The only place that info on it has been released is on the members list on the website. No-one else has a copy of it. My 4 other accounts are free from spam and virus attachments, but this one is getting hammered. I have a feeling a webcrawler has dug out the info from the page :sly:

Am I the only one this is happening to?

Cheers
Pete

Nortons is quarantining all the viruses as they come in... I've never had a virus on my PCs... it's just weird that this account of all of them is getting them sent to it.

suuuuure, blame it on the 4G members list :screwy:

i have scanned my pc...no virus or whatnot. however, i have been getting 5-10 e-mail's a day (for past 3-4 days) from 1 specific address (i know no clue who it belongs to, never seen it before) saying it's returning my infected mail :dunno: i'm getting ready to block the addy...it's starting to bug

i reformatted my comp last week b/c of the lovesan worm...everything is running fine. but like sentata, over the last couple days, my personal email (one i use for Af) has been getting slammed with these huge emails.

I dont open them...I mean an email that 124k big, from someone I dont know....yea right. Ive been getting anywhere from 10-40 of these a day.

Anyone know what I can do to get rid of these fuckers?..I dont wanna have to change emails, but these things are flooding my account.

To stop these from coming in to your yahoo account you can set up a filter. Go to options, filter, Add filter, put the name of the subject "Thank You", Also make sure you put contains because it may say "Re:Thank You", then put down you want this file to go to trash. Do the same thing to the one that says "Your details" DONT CLICK match case either.
