I don't think there is any emails that get sent out about real viruses. I think most of the junk nowadays is spam and not so much a virus. Rule of thumb don't open any attachment especially exe. Ask who sent it if they did really send it before opening. Do a virus scan on it before opening it also. Also be very careful about following links in an email. I usually don't more than likely take you to a site that will infect you. -- Hope, 07:20:56 11/04/07 Sun [1]

I think you must be right about the emails, Hope. What bugs me is that many people who aren't computer savvy, get taken in. I have a friend who was so upset about the "urgent" nature of her warning email, she passed it on to about 100 friends on two continents. It was hoak and she felt so stupid. -- Cece, 15:04:46 11/04/07 Sun [1]
