[muglo] Re: Entourage VIRUS Warning

Mary, they ARE NOT HARMLESS!

The virus was operating from my imac sending out email to people on my list.

Checked with Rogers and they reported out-bound activity when I was in "send
only" mode as a test... The damn thing even sent an e-mail FROM me TO me...
Which was the way I knew for sure I was infected.

You may be infected and not know it.
