Let's get a few things straight here before we go any further... I field enough calls from the clooless at work trying to warn me about getting the 'Good Times Virus' in my email without having to worry about yet another meme floating around about email virii. 1. Can anyone show that the .com file replicates? It MUST reproduce itself to be called a virus last time I checked. It looks like a trojan horse to me. 2. How many of you people are using Microsloth Internet Mail? It was mentioned a LONG time ago (I think here, in fact) that there was a major mental lapse on the part of the programmers when designing it because single-clicking a piece of mail will view it, while DOUBLE-CLICKING the mail will execute it (and any attached files!). Most people double-click EVERYTHING in Windoze, and this is why it nailed so many people. I'm surprised I hadn't seen this done sooner. If you think it only got a few of the M$IM users, think again. I'll bet there's a LOT of them out there who are 'suffering in silence' because their computer is completely kaput, or sitting in a shop waiting for someone like me to wipe the hard drive and reinstall everything. Please, if there's going to be another damn meme about email virii, let it NOT be from a list I consider to be at least a LITTLE more enlightened than the hordes of AOL (l)users out there. ---------- Dagmar the Surreal (not actual size) "The Internet is Full.
