Hi, After I posted a message in regards to my page
default on IE 6.0 I'm starting to get numerous emails
from Microsoft telling me that I have a virus in my
system. If some one can please take my email off the
list so the email will stop coming.

Thank You

Click to expand...

you should have used a bogus email address on the NGs so that the
virus cannot take your address from it (nor spammers).
secondly it is not because you get a message that you have a virus
that you are infected... it is enough that the virus use your email
address from the infected computer to send itself. (I mean lost of
virus use any address found on the comp to send themselves).
Thirdly, it is not a list here, so no-one can take you out of it
 
The email is not from microsoft. It is from an infected
computer system that is trying to pass along a virus to
you. Just delete it.
 
James,

I seem to have put a stop to the downloading of most of them by setting up an email rule to delete,from the server,any email over 100KB in size.

When you've set up the rule click on it,to highlight it,then click on MOVE UP repeatedly to move it to the top of your list of rules.

Of course this rule will be of no use to you if you normally receive emails of this sort of size that you actually do want.

To set up the rule I did this.

I clicked on TOOLS/MESSAGE RULES/MAIL/NEW.

Then I clicked on the box,in Section 1,next to WHERE THE MESSAGE SIZE IS MORE THAN SIZE to select it.

Then I clicked on the underlined SIZE and typed in 100 and clicked OK.

Then I moved to Section 2 and clicked the box next to DELETE IT FROM THE SERVER,to select that option.

Then I clicked OK then OK,on the next page,to create the rule.

Then I clicked on that rule,to highlight it,then kept on clicking on MOVE UP until that rule was at the top of all my MESSAGE RULES.

Then I clicked on OK again and that was it all done.
