[QUOTE="cam, post: 331780, member: 923"] Basically what a virus does is mask itself as someone else in an address book lets say person A, B and C are all sat at home person a gets A virus Person B and C are also in person A's address book The virus sends itself out to person B and C cause they are in the address book however if the virus says its from person A then person B and C will tell person A they have a virus and person A will clean his machine so the virus sends itself to person B and C but to person B it pretends person C is sending it and to person C it pretends B is sending it, thus meaning the person with the virus A is not getting contacted about the virus at all and the virus can continue to run on there machine. Thats why someone who has your email address in there address book who has the virus is sending the virus out to everyone in that address book (well there not but the virus is) but pretending that it is from you, so no one replies telling the person they have a virus. duno if thats clear or not, but thats the way it works lol [/QUOTE]
