Probably something on the Win side. Check out this url for a description of
the swen virus that uses your machine to send emails:

BTW, on my Actiontec modem issues... today I gave up and removed one of my
two scsi drives, and now the scsi adapter bios and the remaining scsi drive
seem stable; so it may be that I have a bad drive. Or else I just have to
give the gremlin more time to screw it up again. But during all the
shutdowns/reboots today my modem went back to using IRQ 11 again, and now I
can't get it working, just like before. The only time I had it working was
when it came up using IRQ 3. This is becoming very frustrating, it's hard
for me to understand how the modem gets assigned different IRQ's all the
time (so far 3, 5, and 11, a quirk of PCI I guess). I did make a couple of
changes to my MB bios, so I guess I need to start fooling with that again.
Frustrating.
