    Ive recently been getting lots of virus mails/getting mails about me sending virus emails, and Ive come to the conclusion that I have "I-Worm.Netsky.d". Anyway, its a pretty widespread worm, and Im pretty sure some of you have probably had it. The prob is that Ive been trying loads of shit (socalled remover programs that doesnt remove shit, virus programs n so on) without any luck. So I was wondering if anybody here have had this worm and know how to get rid of it.

    ya ive been getting alot of mails the last week or 2 2!!!!

    ive got the latest Norton but it doesnt find it.

    Also its kinda strange that it only floods one of my eight inboxes, and its the one that i use to register evrywhere.

    i havent used this mail for registering at any places at all, i learned that from another time where i started getting like 1000s of mails each day D:

    but ive been reading a bit into fiddling with the registry of windows n removing it that way, hmm~

    I think I have that aswell, well I never down load mail to my own

    comp but have mail acount on different places, so I guess I cant do anything about that...

    It must be up to the mail account server to fix that, isn't it?

    I get approx ~150 virus emails / day and I dont have any viruses on my computer.

    If you get alot mail it doesnt mean that you have the virus. How do you know you have that exact netsky virus?

    It uses the web cache on the infected machine to both find taraget mail adresses and to fake as sender adress.

    This means that if you're mail is somewhere on the web you'll both receive the virus and mailservers/viruscheckers will think you tried to send it to others. You may not actually have it, bottom line, dont ever open an attachement you don't KNOW what it is.
