Are you sending this message to everyone at LINDSEY-L, or are you sending it directly to me? Reason I'm asking, my computer is checked every morning AND overnight for viruses. I can't even get into our system if I have a virus, plus our ISSS people would be calling me. So far I am both in my system and have had no calls. ????????????? -----Original Message----- From: Kevin Rooks [mailto:kevin1ofmany@webtv.net] Sent: Wednesday, January 30, 2002 7:37 AM To: LINDSEY-L@rootsweb.com Subject: [LINDSEY] Re: email virus The virus was transmitted from your computer using a list of addresses it got from Rootsweb. I know. I got one. My antivirus even told me what kind it was and its name. For your own safety and your online friends, you should update your antivirus software as soon as possible. Rootsweb lists cannot transmit virus programs but our own computers certainly can if we don't update. In my case, no harm done and I have no hard feelings. We didn't create those horrible things. Have a nice day. Kevin Rooks p.s. webtv/msntv is great for receiving email as its not capable of running any programs at all, so far, viruses are extremely ineffective against it. That's one reason why I have a computer and a webtv. --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free. You can ask it's doctor! Checked by AVG anti-virus system (http://www.grisoft.com).
