In addition, we use up-to-date blocklists from Spamhaus and TrendMicro to help reduce and guard against unwanted spam
- Proactive Bot Notification: As a new feature of the Constant Guard service, we may email a Service Notice to your Comcast primary email address if we believe one or more of your computers may be infected with a type of virus, called a Bot. A Bot is a malicious form of software that could use your PC to send spam, host a phishing site, or steal your identity by monitoring your keystrokes. The email will advise you go to the Comcast Constant Guard Center at https://constantguard.comcast.net, where you can access resources to help you remove the Bot from your computer. The Service email will look like this:
From: Comcast Security Assurance
Subject: Constant Guard Service Notice
Dear Comcast Customer,
The Constant Guard service has identified that one or more of your computers may be infected with a Bot. Please read on.
A Bot, also referred to as malicious software or malware, is used to gain control of your computer, typically without your knowledge. Online criminals can use Bots to collect your personal and private data, such as Social Security numbers, bank account information, and/or credit card numbers by monitoring your keystrokes. This can lead to identity theft and fraud!
We recommend that you visit the Comcast Constant Guard Center at https://constantguard.comcast.net for instructions to help you remove the Bot from your computer(s). We also advise that you keep your computer(s) protected by performing regular Operating System updates and by using Norton Security Suite anti-virus software.

Sincerely,
Comcast Customer Security Assurance
