VIRUS ALERT!
Many thousands of Internet users are subscribers to the mailing lists of Good News Ministries, and we often receive several hundred virus-infected emails daily from people who have us in their address books.
This does not get spread to you from Good News Ministries, because we have multiple layers of anti-virus protection. However, it does affect our server by slowing down email delivery and it steals from me time I should be spending on providing you with the ministry you've subscribed to.
IS YOUR COMPUTER INFECTED?
ARE YOU CONTRIBUTING TO THE PROBLEM?Watch out for the following emails! The latest viruses:
- Spread email with links to websites that contain hate content.
- "Notify" you that an email you sent to a series of recipients has bounced or was undeliverable, even though you did no such thing.
- Ask you to verify your email address.
- Notify you that your account has been blocked.
Do NOT reply to any of these emails! Do not even open them!
Computers that lack updated anti-virus definitions are at the greatest risk of being victimized by these and other viruses. These viruses embed a a mass-mailing worm into your computer and steal email addresses from your address book to distribute itself in multiplying amounts. These addresses are also used to help disguise the worm and promote further infection and confusion.
Due to the abundance of infected mail coming from users of Good News Ministries who do not adequately protect their computers from infections, I am forced to use filters. That means that I fail to receive some legitimate mail, and the senders don't know that their letters have never been read.
If you wrote to us and never received a reply, please use our Contact Form to reach me.
