Okay, I received an email that displays the first several lines of a previously read email in the message body. For example, if I read message A, then click on the Suspicious Email, the first lines from message A appears in the Suspicious Email. If I then click on message B, and then again on Suspicious Email, the first lines of message B appears in the Suspicious Email. If I look under Properties, Message Body, I can see the original message as being one of those “Your m o r tgage has been blahblahblah” types.
There was no attachment. I use Outlook Express, reading/sending email as plain text. Computer OS is WinXP, Service Pack 2, firewalled, with F-Prot as the antivirus program. I update OS, AVP every night, and then run the antivirus program. F-Prot has not reported any viruses. I’ve also been checking the Registry to see if there are any new unknown processes, especially under Run and RunOnce (Local_Machine).
Has anyone heard of this kind of email mischief? I googled and searched AVP/CERT sites to no avail. (I’ve also sent an email to my college’s director of IT but haven’t heard anything yet.)
