    Klez macro virus I need help

    Can anybody offer any help.

    As far as I can gather it looks like
    an account at btinternet.com is sending it to me.

    It may be spoofing and not from that guy.

    He is real enough, I have found his phone number on the internet.

    Ofcourse it might not be him.

    I have sent items to [email protected]

    This is really starting to bug me as I am receiving,
    four of these a day in my prime business email account.

    Below is what I receive in the body of the message:

    ----- Original Message -----

    You can take it as read that there is no such url as
    loverscreensaver.com

    I have run FixKlez.com (100,472 bytes) on my machine
    I am using Outlook Express 6.00.2800.1106
    and between that and Norton I cannot even open
    the files even if I 'wanted' to.

    we need to see the headers

    You can only identify the source if you see the full headers

    right click on the message, choose properties, then the details tab.

    cut and paste that lot. you will have something like this :

    Return-Path: <[email protected]>
    Received: from mta03.local ([209.225.10.27])
    &nbsp &nbsp &nbsp &nbsp by s1.uklinux.net (8.11.6/8.11.6) with SMTP id g9A2n1027507

    From: "venture finance" <[email protected]>
    To: <[email protected]>

    what you need is that first received from line.
    Received: from mta03.local ([209.225.10.27])

    ignore the name but the ip address is the mail server that sent it to you. lookup who they are at www.ripe.net/perl/whois

    forward the mail to abuse@..... including a full copy of the headers and ask them to identify the user responsible.

    Most isps will close the account until their customer applies av.
