dank Posted June 6, 2010 ID:262952 Share Posted June 6, 2010 I get a lot of spam and many have links to drive by malware sites and "text" , "pdf" etc... flies attached that contain viruse and malware. I want to know how can I safely send these to Malwarebytes. Do I just forward the emails to you? I really dont want to download the file from the email to my pc to send it to Malwarebytes. Let me know what to do to help. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
yardbird Posted June 7, 2010 ID:263162 Share Posted June 7, 2010 Do an Anti Virus Scan - and a Malwarebytes quick scan ( make sure the AV & Malwarebytes is up to date 1st) then post back the results of the scans. Don't post logs. Just let us know if you see an infection? anything out of the Ordinary... do you get alot of spam every day? Or was this 1 or 2 days? Then someone will get back to you. At this point "settings" may need to be looked over? regards... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I get emails from places that are obviously trying to sucker me into downloading their malware or cliocking on links that will take me to infected drive by sites.. I want to know how to take the files in the emails I get and send them to Malwarebytes so that you guys can examine them. Should I just forward the emails to you?I do get a lot of spam because we run many businesses and our email addresses are all over the internet. I just figured instead of deleting the messages , I could send Malwarebytes the ones that I suspect have malware attached.I just want to know the best way to do it?
