I have received the following E-mails in my accounts. Each HAD an "attached" file with a VIRUS imbedded in it. I am NOT sending the attached file but just the intro wording that is going around. See the similarity and ALL contained the same VIRUS in the attachment. E-mails contain incorrect ENGLISH but attachments are different in size and originator. What happens in this VIRUS is that it goes INTO your Address book and attaches itself to your outgoing without you suspecting anything. Norton caught this VIRUS. Who let the FREAKS loose in JULY? All of these files were sent within the past 10 days. Has anyone else received similar JUNK?

Thanks ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ A VIRUS no longer needs to be sent as an "attachment" but can be sent as a part of any E-mail. If that is true it will put a BIG dent in my genealogy work. LLoyd McDaniel Costa Mesa, CA.
