Yahoo free email going crazy

ElectricSavant · Aug 22, 2003

Can anyone tel me why I am receiving over 100 emails a day and sending emails out......I got a worm right?

What do I do.....this is a free email account...doesn't Yahoo have any control over this?

My Yahoo mail also got filled with sobig. Delete the stuff and move on, it's not such a big deal as they made out of it.

ElectricSavant, I hope you did delete those e-mails...

I used the removal tool and it said I did not have the virus!!!! So this is a Yahoo thing, trying to get me to download those pesky downloads......I wish yahoo would block these virus attached emails...

P.S. I also check the attachments with norton before opening, and I saw the virus was there...i just thought I got it another way...perhaps embedded in FPC's website.
