I'm not a computer/software expert so I'm not certain. Our office has
outlook and when I check the properties of the email address it shows their
email addresses. I just wanted to give them the heads up. I guess I'm just
paranoid about this stuff. We've had two different viruses get into our
office because of careless people.
I guess I should have said "jacked their email addresses" instead of
"accounts". Just rtying to be helpful. Oh well.

Are you certain that the messages came from them? Almost all of the email
viruses scan the victim's PC for email addresses, and then send you messages
spoofing those as the FROM addresses. So it's more likely that an infected
person has Tim & Nixon's email addresses on their computers than it is that
they have a virus themselves.
