Hey I don't know why but I keep on getting emails from you, all with viruses. Apperently the source of all those emails is from hc_studio.com via delta.pxnetwork.com.

(helo=hc_studio.com)
by delta.pxnetwork.com with smtp (Exim 4.24)

Yeah I was pretty sure its that, chinacat.

It's suddenly much more common to see virus warnings nowdays, normally I never see those ever.

now that would be a tirck considering we've never conversed via email

I'll check with the server and see whats happening on that end, though it is probably my hosting service was raped by a spyder...

If I can put a stop to it I will.

The other odd thing is that I do not email anyone from that account except three people and they haven't had any problems.


btw: I don't get WORM's or Virus problems, least of all attacking my address book...

Hmm no. Last email I sent were 3 days ago.

*edit*
Received: from [80.55.235.222] (helo=hc_studio.net)
by delta.pxnetwork.com with smtp (Exim 4.24)

That is same for all the returned emails. I think that server got borked. Either 2 servers anyway.

changing email upon posting this to see what takes place over time with such spam crap...


I am betting it is a Site Spider data-mining email addresses to build dbf''''s for spambots.

Odd. delta.pxnetwork.com is some Cpanel thingy site, and hc_studio.org is nonexistant, but IP address points to an another site.

Hi guys, I received an e-mail apparently from webgizmos, with whom I have never before corresponded, and caught some similar information in the header. Thought I would post it here in case you are interested.

The message contained two attachments, both containing virii. Since both webgizmos and I have these email addresses posted in our profiles here, it appears to me that some type of spyder is crawling the site looking for addresses.

BTW, webgizmos, if you read this, I have no doubt that you did not send the email to me.

I think the WC emails did get spidered. I got one legit email at design HatH joe doug * com but over 100 spam a day. It really sucks.

mmm, I'll go ahead and keep the email addy active and run email-tracker to the source and visual route on the source, the info compiled could be used to go against those doing it and tracking them down possibly...

I forwarded the email I received to Security @ yahoo for them to trace, though I don't really expect to ever hear from them again. That would be my idea of one of the ultimate thankless jobs. All they ever get are complaints and rarely if ever any recognition or gratitude.
