How do I block all my junk mail without changing my email address?

Per Yahoo this is being caused by a virus. It spreads out through your email account and it sends spam emails to the contacts that are in your address book and to yourself if your address is in your contact list without your knowledge.

There are many viruses in existence today (often called "worms"), that propagate when an email attachment containing the virus is sent to an email address found in an infected user's computer (e.g., address book, local files, etc.).

To stop the sending out of spam please change your Yahoo! password.

The users that have encountered this before stopped the sending out of spam after changing their Yahoo! password.

You can use this link to change your password.

You might want to run a virus scan on your computer and it sometimes helps to run a virus scan in the SAFE MODE. This can be accomplished by restarting your computer and slowly clicking on the F8 button on your keyboard while the computer is starting up

Also, Yahoo has advised when you receive an email that SEEMS to be from yourself it is possible for the sender to put your email address in the FROM section which will then show your email address in the in box prior to opening up the email....which, of course, you should NEVER open.

One last note....enter CNET SECURITY CENTER in your web browser. This site has a ton of info ref viruses, worms, etc
