Hotmail + virus problem, Help!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

If the Ivory Tower is the brain of the board, and the Transformers discussion is its heart, then General Discussions is the waste disposal pipe. Or kidney. Or something suitably pulpy and soft, like 4 week old bananas.

Hotmail + virus problem, Help!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Post by The Last Autobot » Wed Mar 02, 2005 8:24 pm

In the last week Ive been experiencing problems with my hotmail account. Almost all the time I got a mail with an attachment I cant open it because an "unknown virus alert" appears.

I ve tried sending a file to my hotmail and yahoo accounts and I dont have any trouble opening it in yahoo, but I keep seeing the same warning in hotmail. Ive double checked this pc and I dont find any virus. Other people who open their hotmail account here dont have any trouble accesing attachments.

Have I been cracked? can my account have a virus??? Is that possible?

Try using outlook express, thunderbird or some email client program to download your hotmail, you shoud not be able to have any more problems after that.

Just remember to set the rules for downloading attachment in your email client program.
