Anti-Virus is creating to much SPAM

by jdclyde . Updated 22 years, 3 months ago

Net and Security Admins need to learn to turn off the auto-reply that many Anti-viruses do when a virus attemt is found.

Almost every virus today spoofs the “from”, so all you are doing is creating a lot of spam mail and worring a lot of people needlessly.

Hasn’t anyone realized this or are they just to lazy to turn off what was once a usefull feature in letting someone know they were infected to an anoyance that ONLY does harm now?

Stop the spam now.

Thank you
