i am sure you all know this but it is easy to send email using someone elses identity just through telnet.
Telnet into the smtp port of a mail server (hundreds out there ) e.g mail.btinternet.com mail.virgin.net etc etc then usiong simple smtp commands such as rcpt to, mail from and data etc you can say who it is going to and who from !!
This is well old and well documented as i am sure people will flame me for !!
not yet I am In adv. spead sheets class at the moment but as soon as I get home i will
It sounds like you have a worm. Unplug the computer from its internet connection and scan.. scan... scan... If you can't detect a worm or whatever then someone may be spoofing your address with some type of re-mailer.
sorry if some of my questions seem foolish but I am just a little behind the curve (whoa tons ) with some of this stuff
Please dont flame anybody who is trying to help they know a rookie when they see one
thanks again
As a last note, please let us know what happens when you run the bugbear removal tool. I am very curious if this is the culprit...
