Make darned sure your virus protection software is working. This new Badtrans is sending embedded things in email - complete with the worm/virus. I was blithely unaware of the Qualcom\Eudora Mail\Embedded folder until this week. Have you looked there lately? I found 3 virus-infected files there, all of which had been renamed by Zone Alarm. I also found a lot of garbage which I didn't want. I prefer not to get any graphics, animated or otherwise, in my mailbox unless someone tells me ahead of time that they are going to send it.

Hmmm. While in Eudora, I just opened up the File Browser box to check Qualcom/Eudora Mail/Embedded folder. All (about 15) were JPEG and GIF images. As I scrolled down the list, I got the Red Box - "FIRE IN THE HOLE". The Setup.Doc.scr was infected with BadTrans. The file (setup.doc.scr) wasn't there when I first opened the box and then it appeared all of a sudden when I got the warning! Very strange. I always scan before opening anything. Wonder how/when this snuck in? I'm off to do further checking............ Linda At 04:07 PM 11/26/2001, you wrote: >Yes .... Make darned sure your virus protection software is >working.
