I got an Email today form "
support@microsoft.com" and The subject line is Approved (Ref: 38446-263)... BUt I've had no dealings with Microshaft, and they said all the info I needed was in a file called approved.pif..<br><br>NM... Just fiunished a virus scan, and the file is a worm. Do not open it. Delete it ASAP. <p><!--EZCODE CENTER START--><div style="text-align:center"><!--EZCODE FONT START--><span style="color:red;font-family:arial;font-size:xx-large;"><!--EZCODE BOLD START--><strong>I HATE EZBOARD!!!</strong><!--EZCODE BOLD END--></span><!--EZCODE FONT END--></div><!--EZCODE CENTER END--></p><i></i>

I dunno where the names are coming from, but I don't like it... I deleted the Email, otherwise I'd check to see which account it came from. <p><!--EZCODE CENTER START--><div style="text-align:center"><!--EZCODE FONT START--><span style="color:red;font-family:arial;font-size:xx-large;"><!--EZCODE BOLD START--><strong>I HATE EZBOARD!!!</strong><!--EZCODE BOLD END--></span><!--EZCODE FONT END--></div><!--EZCODE CENTER END--></p><i></i>

Glad I paid attetion, and scanned the file first. NO telling what it could have done. Just an FYI for the rest of the folks to be aware. <p><!--EZCODE CENTER START--><div style="text-align:center"><!--EZCODE FONT START--><span style="color:red;font-family:arial;font-size:xx-large;"><!--EZCODE BOLD START--><strong>I HATE EZBOARD!!!</strong><!--EZCODE BOLD END--></span><!--EZCODE FONT END--></div><!--EZCODE CENTER END--></p><i></i>

Then someone on the THZclan mailing list must have gotten this worm. We all have THZclan accounts..... This is very strange. <p><!--EZCODE CENTER START--><div style="text-align:center"><!--EZCODE FONT START--><span style="color:red;font-family:arial;font-size:xx-large;"><!--EZCODE BOLD START--><strong>I HATE EZBOARD!!!</strong><!--EZCODE BOLD END--></span><!--EZCODE FONT END--></div><!--EZCODE CENTER END--></p><i></i>

It is probably mass mailing the hosts mail server. I doub't it is anyone on the thz mailing list. I would bet that everyone who has an account on CI Host is getting them. <p><div align="left"><hr color="#daae52"><a href="
