Well the new virus sweeping the net has hit me and turned my computer into a spambot! Anyway, it has led me to be black listed on several lists which poses a serious problem with sending e-mails.

Any advice on how to fix this?

Use webmail to send for the time being. Spam blacklists aren't permanent. You should be removed automatically after a month or two.

Go to http://www.dnsstuff.com/ and enter your computer's IP address in the "Spam database lookup" to see how many blacklists you're on and follow the progress of your removal. Chances are, you're not on very many lists.
