    I use MetroFax, an internet based fax service. It cost less than $10 per month and they even have a mobile Android/iPhone app thats included.

    did you ever bother to wipe your system restore too? Because if you never clear it, you will just reinfect yourself when you restore.

    It's not that hard getting rid of trojans if you know what it is you have. My parents have turned it into their retirement income.


    Another program for folks to try is Drive Axle application for Androids.

    driver, i do the partition deletes. i never do formats. same with my android phone.

    heck, i even installed new hard drives on computers and the phone is brand new upgrade 2 months.

    the problem is NOT windows or android.

    i also didn't have this problem UNTILL i switched to verizon and got the moto bionic. to which i now have the note2. i also bought a acer 10 in netbook from walmart the same day i switched to verizon. that's the day this trojan hit. and it won't go away.

    beats the heck out of me. all i know is if you email me. you will get a spam email back with a link for drugs.

    and that's with the computers AND the phone turned off.

    and who is your email provider?

    Sounds more like your email is hacked and someone has your password.

    of course someone has my password. when it's changed. that first email takes them an hour to send back. after that. it's the instant you hit the send button. and it all started the day i switch to verzion and bought a netbook from walmart. so it could be verizon or the phone or the netbook that hacked me. i've had that email since the beginning of the internet with the first internet provider.

    the phone is dead and the netbook is LONG gone. and when i switched back to sprint for a week. NO PROBLEMS.

    Some places will not deal with email. Fax only. For around $15 a month or so you can get set up with internet fax and have no problems.
