[pchelpers] Virus

Hello everyone!

I was just reading an article about the many different computer viruses that
there are and how we can avoid them and stop the spreading of them. If you
all remember we can take a step of getting a virus on our system by NOT
opening up an email from an unknown source. This was always and still is a
good method of preventing a virus attack on our machine. As the article made
mention, that was true in 1999, but not so true today. Why you may ask?
Since the invention of the WORM we call all receive a virus from our very
best friend as the WORM propagate themselves by capturing all of the email
addresses we have in our address book and sending a copy of itself to
everyone we have ever sent an email to. The only reliable method today to
stop a virus is to have a good anti-virus program that is always running and
up to date. I thought that I would pass this bit of information on as a
healthy reminder.

I hope this note finds all in good health.
