Just to let everyone know about the Nimda virus before everyone starts posting to the list I am forwarding part of a service email from Telstra to you all. "The worm, called W32.Nimda, appears as a blank message with an attachment called 'readme.exe' or 'admin.dll'. Nimda spreads through email and searches for shared network drives, seeking unpatched or vulnerable Microsoft Web servers (IIS or Internet InformationServices), overloading them with Internet traffic. The worm harvests email addresses from address books and sends itself to all addresses as an attachment called readme.exe or admin.dll. Please delete any emails you receive with the readme.exe or admin.dll attachments and update your virus definitions to ensure that your system is protected. You can guard against infection by upgrading to Internet Explorer 5.01Service Pack 2, or, version 5.5 Service Pack 2 at<A HREF="http://209.185.240.250/cgi-bin/linkrd?_lang=EN&lah=de4945bfcb6499f974f28a83c8734b0f&lat=1001286681&hm___action=http%3a%2f%2fwindowsupdate%2emicrosoft%2ecom"> http://windowsupdate.microsoft.com</A>" Remember to always keep your virus scanner updated and to not download any attachments you have not been told are being sent to you or you do not know the person who sent it. PLEASE DO NOT TAKE THIS VIRUS UP AS A TOPIC FOR DISCUSSION. Bright Blessings Sandie List Admin My four grandparents family names that I am researching. IN ENGLAND.
