Those of us who have gotten the virus are not playing games, we are not sending the virus on to everybody on purpose. Once your computer picks the bug up it sends mail with attachments to all of your unopened mail. I am sorry if any of you opened one up from me. I got mine through an attachment from a girl in Ohio that I was used to receiving attachments from . I guess we need to learn the lesson that if we are going to send an attachment to someone, we need to let them know ahead of time, and if we do not get a letter that an attachment is coming do not open it!
