Hello all, Not wishing to upset anyone................but correct me if I'm wrong. It is my understanding the virus's (virii) tell lies about where they come from, this makes it harder to find the source. The Internode user probably doesn't have the virus but someone that has the Internode users address in their address book has. The virus uses one or more of the address's and hides behind it. This not only makes the origin harder to find but causes a lot of people to get upset with some poor bugger that is totally blameless. Solution, get a good anit-virus program (even Nortons if you so wish as it is better than nothing), keep it up to date, run regular checks. Simple as that. Good luck Rodger --- Stebbo <ppug@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: > > Hello All, > > please excuse this intrusion......
