Al I got it the day before yesterday, had a attachment that Norton picked up and alerted me. Norton fixed the corrupt file, but I did not open it anyway, (the attachment). The text of the e-mail did not make much sense to me, so I deleted the whole thing. ------------------ |

superdan in his infinite wisdom doesn't use a virus scan. I use Norton,the same as you JD, and I didn't get anything from him that was infected. I asked him if he sent you anything and he said no. Sometimes I forward stuff from him, but it has to go thru an incoming and outgoing scan from me. I update my Antivirus twice a week at least. Maybe someone else has him in their address book and got a worm? ------------------ |

When you don't have a virus scan, some virus's can get "in" with yout you accepting it. Been there and done that, your going OK has little to do with this. ------------------ |

An additional note on virus software. Most of them have the ability for you to schedule and automatically get updates of your virus patterns. This is the critical part. If you don't update the patterns, the software is of no use. I use Norton on all my networked computers at home and have the scheduler update my patterns once a week. The scheduler also runs a full virus scan on the systems once a week. So far I have been lucky and no virus. ------------------ |

Dan, if your penicillian is not able to recognize whatever you have it will say your clean. today's virus's e-mail from your list without leaving a trace it did so in your e-mail server. you'd have to go into DOS to find it. ------------------ |
