It is a wonderful source of interesting and updated rumors and has a link to an alphabetical and searchable Virus hoaxes site at http://vmyths.com/hoax.cfm. I highly reccomend these sites and the frequent use of them. They also make an excellent lesson for students although you should be aware that some of the content may not be appropriate for all students. One should _always_ verify information before propagating rumor. http://service1.symantec.com/sarc/sarc.nsf/html/budsaver.exe.html *************************************************************** MUSIC And COPYRIGHT LAW How much do you understand about what you can download and use in the classroom.
