emails entire address list
I have noticed some ad emails on ridecamp that look like they were the
result of viruses. I had this same problem until someone gave me
the cure. It goes as follows:
Open your address
book. Click on "new contact". In name window type
"A". For screen name or email address type
AAAAAAA@xxxxxxxx The name "A" will be placed at the top of your
address book as entry #1. This will be where the worm starts when it tries
to send itself to everybody. It will be undeliverable because
it is a phony address. It fails and goes
no further.
