Dear Mr Rafael Balarezo
Rogers is concerned about your personal security. We're writing you today to advise you that one or more of the computers in your home connected to the Rogers Internet service appears to be infected with an "IRC Bot/Virus"
A computer infected with an "IRC Bot/Virus" poses a security threat for both you and other customers connected to the Rogers Yahoo! Hi-Speed Internet service. This type of virus can run behind the scenes on your computer and send out large amounts of SPAM, attack Internet Websites, infect other computers and even access personal files on your computer which could lead to identity theft.
For both your security and others using our Internet service, it is critical that you remove this virus within the next 48 hours. If you are unable to do so, your Internet connection will be temporarily disabled to protect your computer and others connected to the service.
How can I resolve this issue?
