    1. [MOBUCHAN] Delete the Digest email with trojan horse/virus included in recent MOBUCHAN list digests
    2. This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/zJB.2ACE/1969 Message Board Post: I got the last few digest email where some of you have included the bad posting which included the trojan horse so that we all could see what was hurting our anitvirus software. Well guys, stop replying to the message and delete the whole digest email message including all of any prior received emails with replys or the original itself. I started having problems too. and my husband almost killed me for opening the post. So having the email posting with that message in it is all it takes, even if you don't open the email or click on the link included in the post. I just deleted all emails related to it, and my antivirus software stopped freaking out. So delete them all with that name in the list of postings "GREAT SITE TO FIND ANCESTORS" then empty your deleted items too. Just so you all feel better about me sharing this info with you, my husband works in the computer industry here in Chicago, IL and has to deal with all this at work also, that's why he got so mad. Thanks for listening.

    1. [MOBUCHAN] a virus question
    2. Alan Price
    3. I apologize for being so uninformed but the recent discussion about the trojan virus brought up a question; how does one delete a suspected email without opening it? Whenever I even put the pointer on a selection my computer opens it up. If I try to right click on it to move it to the deleted items folder it opens before it can be moved. Any suggestions? I do have virus protection on computer and through internet server but just in case....Thank you Peggy in Kansas
