Sure sounds like a virus to me. Don't open any attachments without first checking with the sender; they may not even know their computer has sent it out. When in doubt, delete first and ask questions later. And if your computer runs something when you simply view the message, that's a sure sign something's hinky. Here's a link to McAfee's description of a similar-sounding virus I've been receiving a lot recently: http://vil.mcafee.com/dispVirus.asp?virus_k=99199& I'm only guessing at the actual virus you're all getting, but the McAfee site (and others such as www.Norton.com) lists some of the most active suspects and tells you how to identify them by what files they've left on your computer. It also tells you how to manually disinfect your machines. These virus writers are like the morons who drive around smashing mailboxes with baseball bats, only less athletic. So keep your antivirus programs up to date. And hey... let's be careful out there. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- To sign-off Parkinsn send a message to: mailto:[log in to unmask] In the body of the message put: signoff parkinsn
