email from friend keeps sending
« on: February 22, 2008, 05:48:16 PM »
I have received an email from a friend entitled "Awesome-Horse!!(you'll love it). I opened the email and it is a video stream of a woman controlling the horse she is riding with no bridal..OK. Now...this email has arrived hundreds of times. The only way I can stop it is to put her email address in my spam folder. I did that for 24 hours...reinstated her and it all began again! Everyone she sent this to is experiencing the same problem. Is this a worm..virus? My computer is protected by Symantec. When I scan the computer it says there are no viruses. It seems that it wants to fill my mailbox so that I cannot receive mail. Any help or ideas would be appreciated. This is a good friend and she is horrified...it has not happened to her...just the people she emailed. It was a forward. Thanks so much!

The problem is on her end...suggest to her to contact her ISP.
