    Do you have the original message? Ignore the From: address, as Klez can spoof that address (i.e., someone else's system sends the message with your name as the From: address). You need to walk back through the routing info in the e-mail header to find the real sender...

    Hi All,
            Hoping someone here has the right information to help me. 
    In addition to being the Webbie for the Army MARS Oregon
    Website, I have my own personal Website (not sales or such,
    just "Here I am World") hosted on Virtual Avenue. I keep seeing
    messages in my 'alias' email such as:
    
    Recipient of the infected attachment:  Andrea Moe\Inbox
    Subject of the message:  Worm Klez.E immunity
    One or more attachments were deleted
      Attachment Page.exe was Deleted for the following reasons:
        Virus W32.Klez.H@mm was found.  
     
    It comes into john@private and auto-forwards to the alias
    john.jewkes@private EACH of these emails claims that john@private
    sent it. I do NOT have any email facilities on the server, nor do I ever
    send email with that e-address in it. (YES, I do know how to 'do' that in both
    Netscape and IE Mail and Outlook /Express, BUT, I do not.....) The techs at
    VirtualAve.net swear that their servers do NOT support Open Frame Relays. 
    Scans of my own computer also do not reveal the worm (Even went and got the
    'worm scanner' specifically written for KLEZ from Norton's Homepage).
     
            So, How do I stop it?
