Hi, Cuzzins: For those of you worrying about those dreaded Viruses and in need of a good program, there is a good FREE one that can be downloaded. Also - there is a very good Fire Wall that is FREE for the downloading. Someone shared both with me so I am sharing with you. You are welcome to share this with anyone you want. NOTE: List/Digest from Rootsweb are already 'purged' of any Virus. Rootsweb has this ability in their system. But - be careful of messages that look like they are from Rootsweb - or that may have a reference to a Rootsweb List or Digest in the subject line. They are suspect! I have received a few of these - they are VIRUS-spreading messsages...and the ones I received were buggers to get rid of. ----------- Download the newest free version of Zone Alarm for a good Firewall it is great!! Also, download the newest version of AVG's Free Virus Software. It will run in the background as an anti-virus shield, scan your incoming e-mail, scan other disks and programs on demand, automatically update (all updates are free) and give you reports. AVG's site address is: www.grisoft.com I like it better than Norton's or McAfee's. Zone Alarm's site address is: www.zonelabs.com Please if you don't have virus and firewall protection, please, please get it now. No, I don't own any of their stock, I just hate to see people cry and listen to a sad tale of woe when it could have been prevented free. original message from: Roger [email protected] - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Any question, please Email him - not me. I am semi-ignorant regarding computers, but I have downloaded both of the above. The AVG takes time to download - if you should get a "time out" advisory, just keep trying - it will eventually download. The Virus Killer has found viruses in 3 of my incoming messages since I did the download so I know it works. The Fire Wall is protection against Hackers who want to screw around with other's computers. Shirley: [email protected]
