Dear user xxxxx.xxxx@ntlworld.com,

We have detected that your e-mail account has been used to send a large
amount of unsolicited commercial email messages during the last week. Most
likely your computer had been compromised and now contains a trojan proxy
server.

Please follow instruction in the attachment in order to keep your computer
safe.

Best regards,
