: Hi,
:
: I received an E-Mail, SUBJECT "Re Phone Number", FROM
.
:
: The message reads:
:
: "This message has been processed by Symantec's AntiVirus Technology.
:
: phone_number4.pif was infected with the malicious virus W32.Sality.U and
: has
: been deleted because the file cannot be cleaned.
:
:
: For more information on antivirus tips and technology, visit
: http://ses.symantec.com/"
:
: I find it a little strange because
: 1. I understood that Microsoft didn't send E-Mails.
: 2. I don't have Norton or Symantec on my computer.
:
: Is this "for real"? Did Microsoft use Symantec (Norton) AV?
:
: I would very much appreciate an explanation.
: Andy I. (WIN XP SP2; IE/OE 6) P.S. I haven't gone to the URL's.
