Virus received from a PSU address
Because most modern mass mailing viruses forge the "From" address, you have to look at the full headers for the message and check the earliest "Received" header to determine the actual origin of the message.
If you find that an infected message did originate from a PSU network address, you can forward the full headers to virus@psu.edu.
Make sure to include the offensive email in your message with its full headers. Information on how to get full headers is available here -

Again, thank you for bringing this to our attention and we apologize for any inconvenience that this may have caused you.
Otherwise, you should contact the Abuse address for the originating system's ISP. The Whois service at www.arin.net is a good place to start looking for Abuse contacts.
