I received an email at work today from an internet company saying that someone tried to send an infected message but they were holding it in quarantine. It was also sent to some others at work too but it pretended to be from me at another company.
Now when I get home, I have 3 emails from me from my workmail addy. I try to open my Norton but it crashes each time.
I think it's Bugbear.
What do I do?
I have outlook.
