The viirus is VICIOUS- and it's the first time my computer's memory has EVER been a virus vicitm.... Had 80 Parkinson's List messages from you stored to read and think about-turned on my computer-all but 5 are GONE! WHen the virus struck, my computer had been OFF for about three days-- I even got an error message that I have NO modem!! SO I tried to get my e-mail four times, and suddenly, 45 messages from the List appeared. And now, I'm letting you know--YOU may be next!
