Several emutalk members have been sending me infected e-mails with subjects like "A IE 6.0 Patch" or "A WinXP Patch". If you get these don't open it. I think many of us here are infected with the W32.Klez.E@mm and I'd recommend everyone performing a standard virus scan.

Well, they only get sent to people you have on your address list in outlook. I don't think I've gotten any from you yet.

Which address is in your address book. I've been revcieving them in my old AOL address. I can't check my Outlook (@pj64cheats.net) email cause I don't have access to a computer with outlook.
