Shopping Partner problem

Has anybody received any strange e-mails - usually blank but with a number of attachments - after registering or requesting a catalogue from one of the FishingMagic shopping Partners? I really don't want to name the company involved but you will know if you have had these odd e-mails. The attachments contain a virus payload - Klez.

I have alerted the company over 6 months ago that this was happening but they still have not cleared up the infection.

I am now getting mail from a company called Energis saying that I have sent them an infected e-mail. I haven't this is part of the Klez virus. Once your e-mail address is on this particular company's database the virus uses it to spoof infected mails to other companies.

Graham. I will mail you direct with the name of the company if you wish but I don't want to do it publicly as they are a good firm with good products and I would not want to damage their business. Maybe it just needs somebody else to remind them that they have a virus problem.

Sorry for this being rather cryptic but I am sure every one will understand.

Kevan, I've seen similar complaints to yours on other forums including some in the U.S. This Klez virus seems to be infecting a number of company's e.mails so I would suggest to Graham that when he contacts the company in question he also advises them to report to the appropriate authorities as I believe that intentionally infecting anybody's system is now a criminal offence.
Remember the international search for the perpetrator of the recent virus that was spread world-wide. That person is now facing a long term of imprisonment.
Keep your anti-virus programmes continuously active.

Kevin, if you let me know who it is I'll pass on the information to our tech lads in London to try and get it sorted.

I have also recieved these, I got one every day for the last 3 days.

Likewise mate, I get at least one a day but my anti virus set up seems to be dealing with it at the moment,I dont know how you all manage to keep so calm about them, I want to tear someone's head off and take a dump down their throats when i get a virus, meant or not.

Drew,
You need to work it out in the ring, all that aggression can't be good for you or your opponant )

You need to remember that the majority of people who send viruses don't actually know they are sending it. Besids, have you actualy 'had' a virus? or just seen your Anti-Virus software stop them? Use good Anti-Virus software, keep it up to date, you'll be fine...
