Hi I've been getting these email almost every day:?
Network Associates WebShield SMTP V4.5 MR1a P0803.345 on smtp2 intercepted a mail from <kippervik@hotmail.com> with the subject line of "RE: Text message" which caused the Content Filter filter ext - vbs to be triggered
I'm running XP with the latest norton virusscan with the most recent virusupdates. I just ran a test and there was no virus to be found. I'm also running Zonealarm firewall with mail protection. I have not recieved any virus like emails on my hotmail either. I've changed my hotmail password but to no avail. These messages that I've supposed to have sent doesn not show up in my sent messages. I never use hotmail through the web, but only through outlook (which should be thoroughly protected by my firewall and virussoftware). I have several other mail accounts too, but hotmail is the only one that has this problem.
It's been like this for a few weeks now...and i get these messages daily. noone in my addressbook has recieved anything. it's always to urls i've never heard about... and it's several programs similar network assiciates that intercepts these emails and sends me the alerts.
