And you have AOL which has heavy duty virus and spam filters. So
you have no idea what is being sent to you. Only that what you
get has been "AOL approved"

Most email viruses get their addresses from the infected machines. All it means
if you get sent a virus, or notified that you sent one is that someone who has
your address also has a virus.
I get them all the time, anymore I don't even worry about it. I just keep good
defenses on my computer. The other day I got a message saying I sent a virus to
somedip@never.heard.of.it.com. All that told me was someone with a virus had my
email address and somedip@never.heard.of.it.com in their address book.
Now if you posted you email address here it DID get harvested and you WILL get
spam and viruses from infected spammers. The only advice I have don't post your
email address to these groups. You WILL get crap sent to you! Some people post
throw away hotmail accounts or try and hide their email. dean @ Don'tSpamMe
hotmail dot com. Might work. I gave up posting my email addresses to these
groups.
Because I never want to be the sender of a virus I quit using Outlook. I know
there are ways to protect it, but the scum virus writers are always looking for
new ways to use Outlook to ------ their filth.
Sorry about your virus, but like the common cold they are a fact of life.
