Barry Settled Boomer Registered: 01/29/07 Posts: 855 Loc: New Rochelle, NY	VIRUS ALERT!!!! I thought you would want to know about this e-mail virus. Even the most advanced programs from Norton or McAfee cannot take care of this one. It appears to affect those who were born prior to 1960. Symptoms: 1. Causes you to send the same e-mail twice. done that! 2. Causes you to send a blank e-mail !that too! 3. Causes you to send e-mail to the wrong person. yep! 4. Causes you to send it back to the person who sent it to you. Aha! 5. Causes you to forget to attach the attachment. well darn! 6. Causes you to hit "SEND" before you've finished. Oh, no - not again! 7. Causes you to hit "DELETE" instead of "SEND." and I just hate that! 8. Causes you to hit "SEND" when you should "DELETE." Oh No! IT IS CALLED THE "C-NILE VIRUS." Hmmm.....Mods Have I posted this already? _________________________ NO! NO! ... and for the 3rd time... NO!! I have NOT lost my mind. I have it backed up in my CD collection ... somewhere
