COMPUTER VIRUS?

AS MOST OF YOU KNOW, I’VE PICKED UP A COMPUTER VIRUS THAT IS USING MY YAHOO ADDRESS BOOK TO SEND OUT E-MAILS THAT APPEAR TO BE FROM ME.  I’M NOT SURE HOW I GOT IT?  I COULD BLAME ANYBODY IN MY LIST OF CONTACTS? TOO MANY PORNO SITES , MAYBE?

I’VE RUN A FULL  COMPUTER SCAN AND NOTHING SHOWS UP.  IS THIS A YAHOO PROBLEM?  THE WORST PART IS THAT IT KEEPS GOING, AND I CAN’T FIND IT, TO MAKE IT STOP.  FOR NOW, DELETE ANY E-MAILS FROM REX0122(AT)YAHOO.COM THAT DO NOT HAVE A SUBJECT LINE.

I’VE RECEIVED E-MAILS FROM A COUPLE OF PEOPLE THAT REPORT THEIR FIREWALLS PREVENT THEM FROM OPENING THE E-MAILS, AND THAT’S A GOOD THING.  I’VE ALSO HEARD FROM CONTACTS THAT WHEN THEY DO A FULL SCAN OF THEIR COMPUTERS AFTER OPENING THE E-MAIL THAT THEY ARE NOT FINDING ANY VIRUSES ON THEIR COMPUTERS, ANOTHER GOOD THING.

I’LL KEEP LOOKING, AND IF ANY OF YOU HAVE EXPERIENCED THIS PROBLEM AND CAN OFFER ME A SOLUTION PLEASE LEAVE ME A COMMENT.

I’M VERY SORRY FOR THESE PROBLEMS.
