    3. I received a message that stated I had tried to send a message that contained a virus. I checked, and my CP was not on any where near that time.(5pm eastern 4 July) I have checked with my updated virus protection program and on line "house call" and I am free of any Virus. I suspect that some one has my name in their address book and that's where its coming from ? Do you know someone with an address of dback@lcii.com that is where the message was going to.. I do not have this in my address book, or any where in my system but think I have seen it in someone's email as a recipient.? Here is a free on line virus test from Trend Micro It takes awhile to run http://housecall.trendmicro.com/ DHB

    3. Hi DHB That happens to me. Spammers hijack [there is another name for it but I don't remember what it is] your addy and use it to spread spam. Either that or your addy is in someone's address book and the contents of the address book were copied. Just one of those things we all have to put up with and there is nothing we can do about it [to my knowledge I could be wrong] I have gotten email from people who have told me that I have sent them a virus and I have no idea who they are! And if I were sending a virus someone would tell me right? Anyway... Cathy Bridges
