There may be a new virus about.
I have begun getting multiple copies of incoming emails (anywhere from 4 to 32 copies). So have two other friends who use different ISPs.
Has anyone else had the same problem? What might be the cause and cure?
Thanks.
Yes—3 copies and they were in spam box.
And the Subject of the email is....?
No. Real emails from friends. Not spam.
Most junk used to go to my junk mail file, and almost none ever went to my Blackberry; but starting a couple of weeks ago everything seems to be going to my inbox on both. I reset my filter from medium to maximum and it had no effect whatsoever.
Any suggestions?
Hmmm...last night I noticed I had sent duplicate emails to several people. It hought it was just “mental pause”, LOL, and had forgotten and sent them twice.
I have all kinds of virus scanning programs on my PC (husband is in IT security), so normally I would be alerted if it was a virus.
I have received multiple copies of email from people concerned about my, well, um - manhood, for years.
Oddly, I’ve never been concerned about it - though I do wonder why they are.
