TOPIC: Email spam issue

Email spam issue 13 years 9 months ago #38365

I keep getting a message from my ISP in my browser, FF. It tells me my comp is infected with a virus that is sending spam from my email and they are suspending my account. [glow=red,2,300]"SPAM ALERT: Your PC(s) may be infected with a computer virus that sends out large amounts of spam. As such, your outbound email service has been temporarily suspended."[/glow] When I use my email, I can receive email, but sending it causes the server to time out and won't send. I have run AVG, Spybot, Adaware, malwarebytes, combofix won't work because of AVG unless I uninstall and I am not going to do that. I found a few infections and cleaned them, but I still get the messages. Is this a legitimate message? I also found an alternative called "Remove-it" at this site www.ms-mvp.org/ . I would like an opinion of this program to make sure I am not getting some fake program.

Sounds like something fake. Are you sure they're giving you the message? Where are you seeing this message? What page were you on?

I will get a screen shot when it happens. If it is fake, then why would my email not be able to send? Right now it times out.
