One Of the Members of Midnight-Racing has received a virus e-mail form you.
He says....
quote:
Just recieved an email from CorsaSport.Co.Uk which has an attachment called Bill.zip
It is a standard virus style email as there is no message body except for "Important Bill" but as it appears to come from a legitimate uk cruising email addy I thought I'd better warn people.
The addy it comes from is James@corsasport.co.uk
This is either having the email addy spoofed from an addy on an infected pc or it is actually being generated by this person's pc due to a virus.
If anyone is on corsasport and knows who this person is then a PM to them suggesting they run a virus scan might be a good idea.
The Virus in the attachment is being reported as W32.Netsky.Z@mm by Symantec Antivirus
You have been warned!

Netsky usually spoofs sender addresses IIRC.
