    Well, what the heck do you expect the police to do about your computer’s address book?!? Get rid of the worm by installing a really good, free, antispyware like SuperAntiSpyware. This is NOT fraud, it’s spyware.

    The same electronics website keeps sending from my address book and sometimes deletes all my contacts. How do you get rid of it?
