----- Original Message ----- Hi Ann and anyone else interested. Here is the post from WE MOVE explaining what happened. ----- Original Message ----- From: E-MOVE Sent: Thursday, May 30, 2002 5:35 PM To: E-MOVE Subject: News from WE MOVE on E-Mail Viruses Recently WE MOVE has received many messages from E-MOVE subscribers and others concerned that they have been sent e-mail viruses with a WE MOVE or E-MOVE return address. We want to reassure you that these do not originate from WE MOVE. Instead, they appear to be variants of the 'Klez' virus that is currently circulating (and circulating, and circulating...) worldwide. The virus chooses a 'From' address and a 'To' address at random from the infected computer; thus, the apparent sender is not the one infected with the virus. The real sender, who is infected, is hidden from the receiver. These general precautions against viruses should be observed: --use virus protection software, and *keep it up to date*. --never open an e-mail attachment from someone you don't know. Never open an attachment you aren't expecting. --delete suspicious e-mails from your In Box, and then from your trash or recycling box. Virus protection software is updated daily in all WE MOVE computers. E-MOVE is not posted through e-mail, and thus is not exposed to e-mail viruses. Thank you to those of you who have expressed concern and alerted WE MOVE about the possibility of a virus infection. To reiterate, we strongly urge all e-mail users to invest in virus protection software, and to keep it up to date. The Klez virus (and future viruses) will stop circulating only when most computers are inoculated against it.
