Hi there
During the past few days when I send an email attachments are being added
without my knowledge. On one occasion 2 jpg files were added from my hard
drive. More worryingly a second email I send with no attachments arrived at
the receiptient with porm adverts attached. I have no viruses or spyware on
my pc (according to Pest Patrol & NAV 2005). Has anyone come across this
before? It does not happen with every email I send. Many thanks in advance.

Are you using Word as your mail editor? If so, I suspect something has
modified your Word Template.
 
Yes I do use Word as my editor. Is there a specific file(s) I can check.
Many thanks for your prompt response.

Locate the ".dot" files on your PC. You should be able to safely remove
normal.dot and email.dot. Alternatively, don't use Word as your mail
editor.
 
Thank you, I'll do that.
