Please ALL listers, take the advice of Aletha re' this Worm/Virus. I have just been through several weeks of aggravation and frustration. What Althea didn't say was that this worm comes through on regular email......an attachment that you open is NOT the culprit. It also has what is called a Trigger Date..........the first day of any month at 5 PM. In other words, it can land in your computer via an ordinary message at any time and you won't know it until the first of the month rolls around and you turn on your computer. In my case, I "got it" on May 26, didn't know it, turned on my computer on the evening of the first and the Devil had "hatched". There was a message in a Windows Box on my opening screen that said: Kagou-Anti-Kro$oft says not today! DO NOT CLICK THE OKAY BOX Shut down and call your computer ghuru right away. Please be assured that I did NOT send any messages to the list during the above mentioned dates. Also, this is a totally new and different email server. It (the Kak Worm)totally destroyed my Outlook Express, so while everything was in such a mess, I signed up with Freewwweb, and am now using their mail service. Best Regards to all of you......I hope your systems are safe. Nancy Plymouth, CT ----------------------------------------------- FREE!
