The home system is 98, and the shop desk top is 95. They aren't even supported by microsoft anymore. The lap has norton 2002, and the other 2 have norton 2000. All three machines delt with it just fine. That viri* is also listed in the reports section of norton as one of a great number of viri* that I'm being protected from. I don't know why you can't find it. Anyway, the point I was trying to make is that this had absolutely nothing to do with e-mail or attachments.
