spamhaus report

[valis]

hello, got welcomed back to the office this morning with the fact that one of our pc's (small network, 10 pc's) has apparently been blocked from emailing by a firm called spamhaus. The dialogue of the email is below:

I am currently scanning the pc to see if there is a trojan, or something along those lines, that has been enabling this pc to spam. As this is my personal pc, and I am the resident spyware guru person, this pc does get checked pretty regularly, but obviously it could still be infected. Other pc's here are able to send out.

Any ideas on this would be most helpful, as I currently am prohibited from sending any email whatsoever.

Thanks in advance,

valis

finally heard back from spamhaus....apparently, depending on your isp, this can be a regular problem....

Hello,

you are writing using an insecure server that is used to
send "phish" spam mails. You can see an example of these
mails on the listing page. Ipowerweb needs to kick out the abusers by closing the security hole that made this possible. They have already contacted us and we hope that this issue will
be solved soon.

Sincerely,

Spamhaus Removals Team (SR08)
