The thing is out of all of you who have got it from 'me', only Tom is on my Contact lists. I dont even know everyone elses address. Also emails from me would say 'Chris D' not '[email protected]'...
So i'm confused.
i got the email a week or 2 back, opened it, but didnt click on the attachments. Am I screwed?

I have just received it again from Wookie and CDouch.
!!!!!!!
!!!!!!!
I also got the one from you, CDouch.
Just to make sure, no one has recieved one of these emails from me have they? Because if they have, I'll have to warn all my friends not to open any attachments from me.
It's strange how it managed to effect Wookiee even though he didn't open it :S

If you're worried about having the virus on your comp', and have no form of virus scan or removal software, then I'd strongly advise visiting http://housecall.antivirus.com/housecall/start_corp.asp
Its a free, web-based virus scanner and cleaner, I keep the link handy coz I usually have to help someone or other remove a virus from their comp at least twice every three weeks (so much fun. ;) ). If you can find the name of the virus for me, I can link a cleaner program, you can download these and they're specifically made for the removal of that one virus.
Virus names are usually something like W32.Klez.H@mm, if I know which one in particular is the offending culprit here, I can help.

Yeh, had this from Cdouch as well. I have seen him on this site but do not talk to him on MSN so how has he passed this on to me.

It does nothing unless you open the attachment.
If you open the attachment, warning signs appear on your computer every 15 minutes, and if you don't find the 'cure' for the virus in 8 hours, all files on your machine are wiped out.
So just don't open the attachment.
Oh, and the longer you keep the e-mail, the more contacts it spreads onto.

Very very very very interesting. Why so? Let me explain.
I have a few hotmail accounts, a few days back in my nokyle one I received the virus from my respawnserver one. However, I hadn't been into that respawn one for well over ten days, and I am stil baffled as to how I managed to send the email on. Also, nokyle isn't even in my respawn list.
Answer that?!!
