My Email

Someone named buttercup is loading up my AOL email box with attachments.
Is there something I can do, along with just reporting it as spam ?

Use your spam filter?

Are they sent on purpose, or it's just another Windows user infected by trojans?

I think you may have a virus - delete them all then run all your adware and virus chit.

Emails these days give you an option to filter your inbox by only accepting emails from those in your address book. Everything else should denied from passing thru.

Check to see if your AOL email gives you that option. May have to call tech support and ask about that.

If so, add everyone you trust in your address book.
