Need some computer e-mail advice..

[pdq67]

I keep getting an e-mail from [Larry Clark] [No Subject], I worked with a guy with that name so I opened it the 1st time I received it.

Boy was that a mistake, damn computer went CRAZY!!

Took the wife like a day to get it back right.

Now, I keep receiving e-mails titled that way, and got one just before now! (I just deleted it!!)..

Is there any way to reverse reply back and screw whoever is sending it to me machine up like whoever wants to do to whoever is getting this type of e-mail??

This crap ain't funny at all by me!!

Block that address or mark it as spam, If all else fails change your email address. Just opening an email should not do anything to your computer, but if it has an attachment and you open that anything can happen. So never open an attachment unless you know for sure who it came from or what it is. If you can report to your ISP the email address so they maybe able to help you.

Install Mircosoft security essentials as your anti-virus and use PC tools Firethreat, both are free, and if you have not already backed up all your information on a portable hard drive do so. Also make sure that you have your systems disc for your computer in case you have to reinstall your operating system on your computer. That way if you lose your system to some A.. H... you can recover.

Also your computer should have a way to create an restore point, see if you can find that and create the restore point when you know your computer is good, that way you can go back to that point if you need to.

Thanks DD,

I think the wife did what you said, but it took a while.

I'd love to get my hands around the neck of whoever is e-mailing this crap to me. Wouldn't be pretty and I'd probably end up in jail!!
