Hi, please could someone advise me how to find the identity of the sender of 6 e-mails ive received in two days? Norton 2004 detects it every time, but cannot repair it. The virus is W*2.Dumaru.Y@mm, I cannot block or bounce the mail back to its sender because the return e-mail addy is false, i have looked at the message properties and all i can find is this ip address "Return-Path: <address@yandex.ru>
Received: from localhost ([24.52.74.8*])"
Is there anything I can do to put an end to this? It is very annoying! Oh yeah, the e-mail is "supposedly" from "FUKENSUICIDE@HOTMAIL.COM" Has anyone heard of this e-mail addy?
Any help would be most appreciated!

yeah, I found that one myself on here, but does it point specifically to the sender of this e-mail, or is it just there ISP? Is there enough information to identify the sender and report them?
thanks again.

no... the IP adres can be false.. or he can be using a proxy or something.
you can mail to the abuse email address with the info you found on the IP address... don't know what to do else

In order to take action according to their Acceptable Use Policy, that ISP will require a text log of the incident which clearly indicates the actions of the ********. This is to say, they need an IP address, date and time in GMT format as well as an explanation of the offence.

Just send them the full un-modified header.
