Exclamation Be leary of Greeting Card eMails

As the title states, be leary of Greeting Card eMails, as there are some new exploits out there involving Flash, Java and QuickTime. Please update those peices of software, along with your Virus Software.

The last one I personally saw was from an IP in Romania, 86.104.129.xxx
Not going to include the last octet as going to that ip will launch the attack/downloader on your PC.

I'm glad that GMail filters all that crap out unless I tell it to show it.

Re: Be leary of Greeting Card eMails

I've been getting greeting cards from a loved one, a friend, a coworker, all kinds of crap!

I love Mail Washer! I just tag all that junk to bounce and they get their mail back as undeliverable.
