I received notification from Trend Micro that our company email was placed on the blocked list because we were spamming. We tracked the problem to one PC, where we could see that there were notifications of rejections for hundreds of mass emails (not originated by us). Other PC's in our network have also received notification of emails being rejected by other agencies (like SpamBusters).
We contacted Trend Micro and it seems that this is a huge problem that is affecting not just our company but an entire block of IP addresses.
We downloaded Hijackthis and ran a scan, and I am posting a copy of the report below.
Any help I can get with resolving this issue would be greatly appreciated, as this is having a major impact on our ability to service our customers.
