Anti-Viral Advice
Penny Thornton has a stringent anti-virus policy, training and procedure ensuring all machines have up to date anti-virus scanners. All email that enters our secure email server is vigorously checked before being either sent or delivered.
Due to some clients operating computers without adequate virus protection you may receive empty emails with attachments claiming to have been sent from Astrolutely.com. This is a result of a client being infected with a virus.
The virus sends itself, using its own SMTP engine (email server), as an attachment to email addresses collected from various files on the victim's computer. When it distributes itself via email it forges the sender's email address, making it difficult to know who is truly infected. Therefore infected clients which have sent Penny Thornton an email or have Astrolutely.com in the address are able to send virii as attachments in emails appearing to originate from Astrolutely.com to the other email addresses listed on their computer.
Astrolutely.com advise all clients to ensure that they have adequate anti-viral protection, ensuring that the signature files are current and scans are performed routinely.
