Be on the lookout for a message supposed to be from Microsoft - it's a new virus which can destroy your 'puter.

My husband is just in from work and says it's already been causing mayhem!!!

Eileen.

rosebud:
thank you Eileen  will pass the message around the family. Mary :D

tim:
Oh, God! What next?? = Tim

Hugh_Jones:
Is it in the form of an email, or does it appear in the form of an update?

gavin:
1.  I caught one last week, an e-mail purporting to be from microsoft, with the subject something like "Updates".

Apparently Microsoft NEVER send out such stuff, so whenever you get such an e-mail, it is at least spam, at worst virus-loaded.

2.  There are several other new viruses out this week - one has spoofed my e-mail, so I was getting 70-80 irate bounce backs a day!  Has an attachment "something or other".pif (and probably others)

All best - Gavin
