I also got WICKED.SCR from admin@yahoo.com (yeah right!), NAV picked it up right away and said bye bye, off you go to quarantine! Unbelivable that some people still open attachments from total strangers. Then again, those types of people keep me in business, so I shouldn't complain! :P

ya..  I'm of the school where I would rather teach people NOT to open crap that they don't ask for.

I don't get to much cash..  But at least people me for it.

Though tech consulting is fun, don't get me wrong..

Heaps of virus's*(virii?) going around this week! Most of them seem to be self spreading email/address book types too. I wish there was some way of removing my address from some of my 'less educated' friends email address books. Between NAV and ZAP it's grabbed about a half dozen that have hit my inbox in the past couple of days. I'll be glad when all this garbage slows back down (hopefully!) .

All the best,
E3

>&nbsp; Re: My details
>&nbsp; Re: Thank you!
>&nbsp; Re: That movie
>&nbsp; Re: Wicked screensaver
>&nbsp; Re: Your application
>&nbsp; Thank you!
>&nbsp; Your details


The messages all have an attachment with one of these names:
- your_document.pif
- document_all.pif
- thank_you.pif
- your_details.pif
- details.pif
- document_9446.pif
