Hello Ya'll
I normally do not post virus alerts to the list. This one time I think it is
worth mentioning. We have had a couple of subscribers who have emailed me
with questions and problems concerning the latest barage of Viral
Infestation!
Hopefully your mother warned you to PRACTICE SAFE COMPUTING!
You should have an anti-viral program on your computer. You should check for
updates at least once a week. That is just plain good prevention tactics. If
you do not know what I am talking about or how to go about updating, email me
off list and I will help you. A computing guru I am not, but I do use Family
Planning, we don't want to give rise to the exploding population of virus's.
Recently there have been more and more dastardly viruses that will read your
address book, and send mimed email to the folks on your list. The subject
fields are randomly chosen, and very misleading. The results can be devasting
to your system. Check your emails. Before you download RUN a virus check on
the file. I recommend that you leave an antiviral running in the background
at all times.
Emails that are 3rd party (filtered through another server) such as list
email from Rootsweb, are not usually carriers. It will be personal email to
you from folks you know. Those in your address book.
Check ALL of your email. Happy Computing and .......
