Cheers Mirza - you just saved me a load of typing!
Everyone - make sure you have anti-virus software installed - you can get MacAfee for around £25 and please make sure you update the anti-virus files

Dianne, if your antivirus program and data files are up to date you shouldn't have anything to worry about.
Just delete them.
There is usually an attached file with this virus so if you open that it might give you a clue about where they actually come from.
A mate of mine got a load of these and found a picture file on one of them that was a photo of the person whose machine was infected so he managed to tell them and get rid of it.

DO NOT OPEN ANY ATTACHMENTS FROM DODGY EMAILS!!!!
Whatever you do, if you get a suspect email, and it has an attachment DELETE is straight away - do not open it - this is how people get infected!
There is a free tool here:
http://securityresponse.symantec.com/avcenter/venc/data/w32.klez.removal.tool.html
This is a wee program that will remove the virus.
Once removed (or even if you don't have it), download the patch that stops the virus from using a well known Internet Explorer security flaw:
http://www.microsoft.com/technet/treeview/default.asp?url=/technet/security/bulletin/MS01-020.asp
Anyone need any advise, give me a shout.

I've had a couple of the undelivered things as well maqueen and today I received another blank email, apparently from Thing on A String. The subject is: 2001 AlmightyZeus.com. This is becoming rather strange.

Thing on a Spring

I just got a blank e-mail from albagubrath.
Is this a virus thing you have all been talking about. Should I delete it.
And William Wallace I never sent you an e-mail.
And it's "Spring".

my concern is that there are 1300+ members of this board and not all are active maybe some visited once or twice this has serious implications because as far as i see it this virus is being used against this board maybe emails will have to be sent to all members warning them of this. and is it possible to not show emails and keep them secret
