Emails Addressed from All Speed Internet
One of the latest virus emails to flood our users mail boxes impersonates
the ISP from the domain of the user.
For example, the return email address could be from admin, support,
etc. at the same domain as your email address.
They often inform you that your account has been suspended or other
actions taken that require your response.
These emails have an attachment that once opened will infect your computer.
All Speed is blocking many of these virus, but there are new versions
coming out every day. It takes while for a new version to be discovered,
and only then can it be blocked.
All Speed is offering the following advice for our users.
Do not ever open an attachment unless you are expecting it, or know
what it is. Even if you know the return address (they can easily
fake it) the attachment can still be generated by a virus.
If you receive an attachment that you were not expecting, and know who
sent it to you, email them to confirm they sent it.
All Speed Internet will never send you an attachment without notifying
personally in advance. In almost all cases, we only send attachment
when specifically requested by our users.
