Virus Warning: Email from "stardock"
Sunday, July 28, 2002 by digitaljames | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk
Beware all users....someone is sending an e-mail with the subject line of "A new website" and the return path is [email protected]. Partial header below... It contains the klez virus so beware and do not open the email as it is obviously NOT from stardock...seems someone is running a bot to harvest the emails of the users here maybe?

Please be VERY careful in what you open. If you don't have a good anti-virus program, I strongly suggest that you get one. If you do have one, please make sure that your definitions are up to date.

I have had complaints to [email protected] about viruses. It is not typical of Stardock to send out attachments, unless they are requested by you.
Check the header of questionable email. If the header information doesn't match who it says it's from, just trash the email.
