The question is "I did not send those emails".
I use Norton Antivirus(newly updated) and cold not find the virus.
The emails contains "att00011.dat" and sometimes "message.pif" virus. And the message shows like below

... while talking to air-xj01.mail.aol.com.:
>>> RCPT To:<entralpp@aol.com>
<<< 550 MAILBOX NOT FOUND
550 <entralpp@aol.com>... User unknown
example 2
example@example.com Íð¤Æ¤Î¥á©`¥ë¤Ë¥¦¥£¥ë¥¹¤¬¤¢¤ê¤Þ¤·¤¿¡£ (file:message.pif) The mail message (file: message.pif) you sent to example@example.com contains a virus. (on odysseus)
"example@example.com " is to stand for the email repient who returned the email to me.
Could anyone help me? As if people continue to recieve virus emails from my domain, my domain might be blocked --- that's very tragic for me.
Also, could here any one suggest me that in case, my domain was listed on "black list", what's the best way to handle it?
Thank you very much. I am looking forward to see your reply. Anyone, please help.
Even if they all wore "blink" tags "n" probably would miss 90% of them
Any 12 yr old hacker can and will send you the pro versions for free via kazaa etc ..
along with all their intesting little addins and ons
Go get NOD 32....
Or any other "real "AV ( altho I think for the money this one is probably the best for everyday use )
And a real time registry monitor tool such as "diamond" ..
And dont file share or let online systems "checkout" your computer for problems etc ...
The dont list is endless...
I'll let others add on their 2cts ....
Also you probably didn't send the offending emails ..they were spoofed using your headers ..the receiving machine doesn't know they were "spoofed" and so trys to return them to you ...
Go get NOD 32....
Um. NOD 32 has on its main page (NOT cached on my machine - this was my first-EVER access of their site) as the latest info on virii/worms a notation as of MARCH 13, 2004! Sorry - that's not good enough.
Since that date, I've received TWELVE notifications of new virii/worms from Symantec. I'll stick with them, thanks.
Never had a virus/worm/trojan - since 1984. I'm not EVER expecting to have one. And it's not because I'm not doing anything which would compromise loose security either; it's because I'M responsible for my security, and I take it VERY seriously....
As to the original question: I'm not sure there's anything you can do to prevent the problem; and once the problem has occurred, I'm not sure there's anything you can do to convince the "bouncees" that you had nothing to do with the whole scenario, other than referring them to the relevant pages on whichever A-V provider's site you trust....
