German E-Mail
 |
Location: Counsilor Office
OS: Win98
The counsilor has been getting a few e-mails, all in German. She does not know anyone who would send her e-mails like this.
Does anyone know if this is connected to some kind of Mass Mailer Worm, or something like that?
(I ask because we got a German e-mail from someone in the inter-school mail, and she can't speak, nor spell for that matter, if German)

NEVER open emails from an unknown source! The emails could be benign mass-mailings, mistakes, or viruses.
It isn't worth finding out which if you know they're not intended for you. If your mail program allows spam/bulk mail filtering, use that function. If not, delete the files immediately upon receipt.
Considering the fact that some of the emails have already been opened/read, you should do a thorough virus scan on all machines on your network as soon as possible.

Please do not contact me by email or PM for help. We're all volunteers here, and only have so much free time to dedicate to our efforts.
However, if I've been working on a thread with you already, and seem to have "forgotten" your thread, please do send me a message. I try not to let things slip through the cracks, but it does happen sometimes.
