Viruses from Flyertalk
 
I know there have been a heap of virsuses around recently. Today I received two with a return spoof of [email protected] and one spoofed form a moderator. Don't know what can be done but wantd everyone to be advised.

DLSIZE,

I'm getting two or three an hour into my moderator email account. All kinds of Flyertalk users email addresses are being spoofed.

Unfortunately I'm going to have to close the email account shortly, as its become useless.

As an ISP I received and blocked over 9000 virus infected emails today. The ones that made it to my personal email were not from Flyertalkers as far as I can see. If you check the Originating IP of the emails you might find out which flyertalkers PC is infected.
