    Google Virus!!

    It's not yet confirmed, but it seems that there is a huge trojan on google servers...

    Anyone using google has received in the last days email from a lot of mailers' daemon?

      How would google know my email address?

      This sounds like a hoax - haven't seen anything on the big german IT newstickers, too.

        Sorry, I'm simply reporting it because I've received an e-mail from my ISP stating it.
        All I have to say is that I receive a few hundreds' mails a day from mailer-daemon all over the world stating that the I have sent an e-mail to a non existing address...

              May be in fact your ISP has got a trojan or YOU have got a trojan instead of Google?

                  Found a piece of the problem.
                  Someone has found a way to send a newsletter from my ISP's newsletter address, so the google virus seems to be an hoax.

                  Now I only need to understand why there is a virus that is using my address to send e-mails, when there is no trojan or virus on my PC.

                    because your address shows up in the contact list of outlook express on a PC that _is_ infected?
