I've received the same message a few times in the past week but not when I am on this site.

EXACTLY what I was going to say...... Run your virus program (make sure the program has been updated) and then see what happens.

I've tried everything and can't get it to come directly into my email in-box like it use to, it continues to go into the spam box. Nothing seems to work to get it to stop.

If you check your choices across the top of your SPAM inbox, there's probably a choice somewhere to label certain emails "not" SPAM or junk or whatever which will put it back in the regular Inbox. Alternatively, just drag it from the spam box to the inbox and that might take care of it automatically. If neither of those work, try right-clicking on the email and see if there isn't a "not" choice in the drop-down menu from the right click.

I have McAfee Total Protection. I am not having any problems and I am not getting any notifications from MTP about them blocking anything because of a virus.

I had problems going to the Three Dudes website. My computer timed out twice. Perhaps you went to the website and this is causing your problem?? Would have liked to see the Three Dudes but not at the risk of computer virus.

None of my virus protection programs have had a problem.

I've had no problems and I work at a bank with super virus protection. Clean your browser and try again.
