GUYS!

This IS PROBABLY that dang Klez virus...I don't know which version though.

My McAffee scan did NOT pick this up but the free scans I do every few weeks or so at Trend Micro DID pick it up.

The thing with the KLEZ virus is that it disables your virus scanning device that's ON your computer...so it's useless.

The empty emails and crazy subject lines along WITH a familiar name (oh yes, and the size of the message, being around 100+ K's) are exactly what the KLEZ does and how it operates.


Please perform a scan using Trend Micro...the virus almost didn't LET me do the scan there. It actually SHUT DOWN my computer ever time I went to the T/M site to perform the scan. It took half a dozen tries before I was able to get all the way THRU the scan.


Here is the link to the FREE SCAN..please do it as it sounds like you've all recieved the virus.

p.s. this was by FAR one of the most frustrating bugs I've ever recieved...very difficult to find and remove. It's a tricky one.

Good luck!
