For the last few weeks I have been bombarded by "Undelivered Mail Returned
to Sender" messages. I get around 20 to 30 a day saying it's returned to
me because it's infected with Klez - or the recipient doesn't accept
attachments, etc.... all kinds of reasons. But most of the "undelivered"
address's are not in my address book (I use Eudora) and all the messages
have my address in the "from" field.
I've scanned my disk with Norton and it comes up clean - yet I am getting
all these "returned mails" with my address on it.
How does Klez work? Is Klez grabbing my address from other peoples address
books that are infected with the virus - and then I get the returned
mail? Is there ANYTHING I can do to stop getting all these "returned"
messages???????
The kicker to all this is, is that it's using my brand new email address
that I've had for just about a
month now. It's driving me insane!
