hello!
for the past few days i've been receiving "mail delivery subsystem" mails in my inbox, subject as: Returned Mail: User Unknown. i've scanned the computer with NAV, it found and quarantined a loader.exe virus. i later deleted it. however i'm still receiving these emails. also i went here http://securityresponse.symantec.com/avcenter/venc/data/downloader.tooncom.html (after searching for "loader.exe") and followed the directions for removal. i've run liveupdate, tried scanning the computer repeatedly, but to no avail.
does anyone have any suggestions? thanks in advance!

Hi, It's possible you are sending e-mails without knowing,Some people have programs like Mailwasher that can return "bounce" e-mails undelivered.Possibly your problem with loader.exe is not solved. Go to http://www.spywareinfo.com/~merijn/downloads.html and download CWShredder that removes loader.exe and other stuff. Do some more online scans for trojans etc athttp://www.pcflank.com/
