Is there a programme I can use that automatically sends an increadibly destructive virus back to spammers when I send their bloody boring and time consuming emails to the Spam Folder?
Passed up the Norton Anit-Virus sign in and now can't seem to get back to it  so I amy make sure I am enrolled.

Cannot find a way to reduce the Windows Live font size. It changed on its own from 10 point to 14 - 16 point about a week ago. One diagnostic check said "windows live file corrupted". Virus checks come up okay. System health listed as good. Anyone have any ideas?

every so often i see a new mail in my drafts. when i open my drafts folder it has a mail with unknown as the sender and (no subject) in the subject box. i delete them but they keep coming back. this is annoying the **** out of me. i have changed password many times and have done full malware and virus sweep of machine.
When trying to open emails filed in certain sub-folders, the quick view pane either shows "Message cannot be found" or shows the content of a previously deleted email.

Most of these emails have attachments and are from financial institutions, could this be a virus/trojan?


Hi All, have recieved an e-mail to my hotmail account, it says "we have detectedc a trojan virus in your folders, click here to upgrade your protection" is this a kosher e-mail, it came fro the "windows live team" e-mail address was a msn adress.

Cheers Paul.

I have 2 computers - one Windows 7 and one running Vista.  This morning (9/26/2012) after an Auomatic Critical Update for Windows, both computers ran fine until I opened Windows Live Messenger.  When WLM opened virtually all computer resources are taken up by the program on both computers (confirmed through Task Manager - Resources).

 

I ran two different virus programs and a spyware program with no issues reported.  I performed a System Restore on the Windows 7 computer but it had no effect.

I can access my email with no problems through Hotmail.

Any ideas what is going on?
