Well I did get an email like that last week, but did not download and open
the attachment. I imediatly deleated the email an boy am I glad.
<whew!>
I have recived a virus with the pif worm type attachement before and didn't
want to risk it. Glad I learned from my privious mistake, as this one looks
much more dammaging than the last pif worm that I recived.
Good reason to keep your viurs data files up to date.

I never send out virus warnings and alerts - sorry Dawn - but already
this
morning I have received several e-mails with this virus attached all sent to
my new email addy. I have no idea how many are infected or where the virus
came from. I know for a fact that most of the email lists I belong to do not
allow attachments, but if someone on the list has the virus, this one will
send itself out to everyone in their addy book and also attempt to reply to
any unanswered emails.
Below is the information on this virus and how to get rid of it. PLEASE
NOTE!!!! when you attempt to open the attachment you will get an error
message that says: "File data corrupt: probably due to a bad data
transmission or bad disk access." Despite your feelings otherwise, YOU ARE
NOW INFECTED!
