Hi,
We did get a call from our ISp, that a lot of e-mails are being sent from
our location. Then I di take a look at the C:\Program
Files\Exchsrvr\Mailroot\vsi 1\Queue and C:\Program
Files\Exchsrvr\Mailroot\vsi 1\UceArchive and I do see a lot of e-mails
inside, if I do try to delete them, from the queue folder I can not. I ran
Innoculate with the latest signature, and it saus no problem

Please advise as the ISp is going to shut down our service.

So How Did I Get Infected Anyway?
For quite a few people it's by installing programs like Messenger Plus, whose ads for malware don't identify the malware as such and try to convince you that you owe it to the author. See also:

Don't ever do a "default" install of anything. Always choose Custom and see what else is being carried along. Don't install any extras you're not sure of.
