    I checked my Freeserve email account and it had 47 Mail Delivery Errors.. I hadn't sent one email from that account! I called Freeserve and they said something about a virus. But, I was wondering if it's possible for the virus to be on their machine? Or is the virus be on my machine? The reason I ask is because how could the virus be on my machine yet the mail delivery errors are on Freeserve server?

    I'm buying McAfee 7 later today. Will that cure the problem? One email said "Virus Scan Warning: I.Klez" I think. I don't want to re-enter the account incase I get more infections..
