Just checked further and the files are definitely pasted from AMG and the names still have a link to the website. They are all at least 2 years old. Better delete them before it happens again. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Murray Reid" <mreid30@xxxxxxxxx>

Just survived (thanks to AVG) a strange virus threat. It is called "exploit" and infects xls files. The strange part is it only infected files that were music cd track listings, and no other worksheets. It didn't hitall of my track listings which leads me to believe they were either files that I copied and pasted data from AMG (all music guide) or ones that I entered the data myself. The virus is very new because AVG couldn't heal them until I did an update.** YOUR HELP IS URGENTLY NEEDED ** DONATE to Hurricane Katrina victims: http://www.redcross.org/ DONATE Housing (Spare room, shelter) http://www.hurricanehousing.org/ --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Computer Talk Shop http://www.computertalkshop.com Un-subscribe/Vacation, http://www.computertalkshop.com/list_options.htm List HowTo: http://www.computertalkshop.com/faq.htm To join Computer Talk Shop's off topic list, please goto: http://computertalkshop.com/other_cts_lists.htm ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
