Now, almost all new viruses are spread through email. The number of reports from customers who have received a virus through email are increasing rapidly. Using this new system, we are able to block viruses before they get to your mailbox, substantially decreasing the chances of you receiving a virus through email. First, we cannot guarantee that this system will block every virus that might be sent through email. Second, this system only blocks viruses in email messages.
Viruses can still spread through downloaded files and other means.
We recommend that you run a virus scan on your computer regularly, and that you keep your virus software up to date. If a virus is detected in your email, you will receive an email from the system telling you that the email has been blocked. If the system detects a virus in the email, the email will be blocked. You will receive an email notifying you of the person who tried to email you, and that the message was blocked. The person who sent the email will also receive notification that their email was blocked because a virus was detected in their email.
