One of my computers is sending out spam

Asked by csellers30 in Spyware / Ad Blockers, Networking Security Vulnerabilities, Anti-Spam Email Software

Tags: Viruses

One of the 50 computers on my network is sending out spam messages thru our exchange server.  This has happened before on the weekend and i was able to find the computer by process of elimination, there were only 2 computers left on over the weekend.  Now one of them has started it again, this time during the day (started around noon).

How can i find it?

The only way that i know it is happening is that the admin mailbox starts getting a ton of emails stating that an email could not be delivered.  They are sending out using my email address, however my computer was not turned on at the time so i know its not coming from mine.

I will start with the 2 computers that had done it before, i ran a virus scan and spybot on them but didnt find much.  

Has anyone had this issue, is there a way to detect which computer is doing this?Start Free Trial
