As well as those, the ones arriving in my email box also sometimes say, "approved."

The interesting thing though is that they are all going to one email address - at least all the one's I opened anyway (I have Pegasus Mail so I can open stuff like this without infection).

Only thing I can think of is: figure out WHO is the person who is infected who has your email address on their system (I assume this is how this virus/worm works - sending itself out to email address in your address book or whatever email address it finds, and maybe using From addresses you have too).

Which raises the point... if someone has had any dealings with [email protected] or anything remotely like that, then you may be infect with a computer virus. Granted, the from address could come from anywhere. But hey. It is worth a shot.

What to do. Add @yahoogroups.com to your filters. Move all incoming emails that have Thank You in their subject line. Create a filter to delete all Wicked Weasel emails. Creat filter to move emails with Approve in subject line. Five minutes of creating a few filters gives much peace.
