    Computer help please

    I use Norton Antivirus; it is up to date, and a scan reveals no issues.

    I got this mail message; it is quite long, I'll put it at the bottom. I think this means someone has invaded my email address book and uses it to send out spam to everyone? How do I get rid of it?!

    If anyone remembers Tim / Majestic Collies, he had a similar issue. I'd get floods of junk mail from him and finally had to block his email. I hated to do it, as he works with skin issues for rough coat collies and often his treatments were helpful for bichons. He couldn't figure out how to stop the darn thing; changed his password several times and it made no difference. Anyone got ideas for me please?!!!

    It's just spam, delete it and don't worry about it.

    It may be a good idea to change your password. Sometimes if you stay logged in your account can get corrupted.

    Yup, tried that as I started getting several of these a week. Which is why I asked and wondered if someone was emailing all my pals constantly.

    If you are sure your PC is not infected, the most likely explanation is someone else who has your email address in their address book has a bug on their PC. Email bugs 'spoof' addresses to make them seem like they are coming from a legit sender. This bug sent a message to a invalid address and the message you shared is the 'bounce' telling you the recipient does not exist.

    This said, in my professional opinion, there are better Anti-Virus tools out there than Norton. We resell a product called ESET. It is better than Norton and cheaper.
