Polly, I think you have an email virus!

Polly, from your description of your email woes in Sherri's herb seed thread, I think you may have a virus in your program.

Friends on a different board have had something that sounds similar. Read about it here

Hope I'm wrong, and if not, that this helps!

Joy I wanted to thank you for posting this site. The "badtrans" had infected me even though I had just ran my Norton Anti-virus, seems I didn't have the most current update, used my Gateway Go back to get rid of the 3 files. I know exactly how I got it, got 3 emails from somebody I know on a list, it had some information on goats I had given to a forum with an attachement on the bottom, wanting me to look at this information. I clicked and it sealed my fate. It doesn't show up until you turn back on the next day and even waits 5 minutes to send everyone in your inbox or sent box an email with the virus! Nasty little creature! All clean now. Thanks again! Vicki
