This is something I thought everyone mitt be interested in..
Virus Warnings
Recently a new virus has turned up and many people appear to be
getting
a copy of it from our lists. This is not true. Our lists are
filtered and no attachments are allowed. This virus sends itself
out to
the addresses in your address book using an address it found
there as the sender's address. So if you have the address of a list
in
your address book, the virus may use that to make it appear it
came from the list. It does not actually come through RootsWeb, it
only
looks like it did.
Here is what Tim Pierce had to say about this recent virus:
Hi, folks -
We've had a lot of reports tonight about a virus being passed
around on RootsWeb lists. I have looked into these reports
and it does NOT appear that the viruses have actually been
sent through our lists.
I've included a semi technical explanation of what I have been
able to find out, for those of you who are curious. The only
important message here is that Roots Web's lists are NOT the
source of recent virus reports.
What seems to be happening is that the current flock of
viruses
do the following things when they infect a new computer:
* The virus sends a copy of itself to everyone in the
computer's address book;
* It forges its own return address to look like it was sent
by
someone *else* in the address book;
* and it uses the Subject line from a message that was
recently
sent from that machine.
So if an infected person sent mail to
BUMBLEROTTER-L(a)rootsweb.com,
the virus might send out mail like this to someone else in the
victim's address book:
From: BUMBLEROTTER-L(a)rootsweb.com
To: joe(a)example.com
Subject: [BUMBLEROTTER] looking for Fred and Wilma
Bumblerotter

Hyper cool Happy New Year 2000 funny programs and
animation's...
We attached our recent animation from this site in our mail
!
Check it out !
Even though the mail never was sent to RootsWeb, the return
address
is forged to make it appear as if it came from us.
I will continue to work on figuring out if there is anything
that
we can do about this; in the meantime, please assure any
concerned
subscribers that subscribing to a RootsWeb list is not dangerous.
:-)

Nanny Celeste COFFEY, born Feb 28, 1912, in Casey County, KY.
She married Philip Terrill Jasper. Her father is thought to be
James K. Coffey.
Her mother's Nanny. Nanny had two sisters Myrtle and Sabra and nine
step-
brothers and sisters.
Any information about Nanny and her family will be appreciated.
Nanny is said to have been mentioned in a genealogy document that
was in the Public Library in Liberty, KY, about fifty years ago. It
has apparently been lost.
Nanny is my wife's mother.

CARE OF PHOTOS
Old photographs are extremely valuable artifacts. They are the
visual link to our past and they help connect us to our shared
history in ways that no other records can. Yet they are
extremely delicate and their preservation can pose special
problems. The biggest enemies to photographs are light, heat,
moisture and pollution. These can catalyze chemical processes
within photographic materials. U.V. radiation can fade
photographs. Heat and moisture work together to cause chemical
reactions within the photographic media and they also can
encourage mold growth and insect activity. Heat alone can
increase the brittleness of a photograph.
Dust can scratch a photographic image and pollutants can carry
destructive chemicals that can react with delicate photographic
emulsions. One of the best things one can do for any
photographic collection is to ensure a very stable environment.
Make sure that the storage location is cool, dark and dry.
Insure that the environment does not suffer from severe
fluctuations in these conditions. Attics, garages, basements and
wallets are definitely NOT ideal locations in which to store
precious photographs.
Try to hold photos and negatives by their edges only. Be sure
not to place your fingers directly onto the photographic image.
Oils and microscopic dirt on fingertips can cause slow but
permanent damage to photos. If and whenever possible, separate
the negatives from the actual prints. Both should be stored in a
cool, dark and dry area. Store important originals in a safe
place and make copies of these photos for display.
When using albums, care must be given to the type selected.
There are now many "archival safe" products on the market.
However, make sure that the paper is acid free and that the
plastics used are PVC free. Acidic paper turns yellow with time
and becomes brittle. Even new photos can be harmed if the paper
touching them is acidic. With regard to plastic storage
materials, PVC gives off a strong vinyl or "plastic" smell. The
chemicals present in this type of plastic are incredibly harmful
to photographic materials. Avoid "magnetic" or "sticky back"
photo albums. These contain harmful chemicals and adhesives that
are detrimental to photos. In time these can permanently bond to
the photo and yellowing adhesives can eventually migrate through
the image.
Using the correct (and often more expensive) materials may seem
like a needless luxury at first, but the pennies you spend now
will save dollars if someday faced with a restoration of a
favorite photo. Think of the expense is an investment: one that
will ensure that the memories within these artifacts are
preserved to be enjoyed and studied by future generations.
