Hi Everyone, I was another victim of the badtrans worm virus so a few of you who I've corresponded with probably received messages from me with the attachment. I sincerely apologize if any of you received the virus from me. I took my computer to the shop and had them remove the virus and also download the latest anti-virus update for me. I use McAfee and Grisoft. Because I can't run both programs at the same time, I was only using Grisoft and I was having problems getting the latest updates from them. The worm virus hit around Nov 23 and my latest update was Nov 13. Anyway, my computer is clean now and I've learned a valuable and expensive lesson from it. And again, I hope none of you got the virus from me. Dee p.s. I received one from someone named Goodwin with a subject Pittsburgh WPA, and one from Isaly's ----- Original Message ----- From: <Msjillec@aol.com> To: <PA-PITTSBURGH-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Monday, November 26, 2001 9:14 AM Subject: [PITTSBURGH] Re; infected member > I recieved one also, but the subject line on mine waa Re; Re; it's a `Burgh > thing > > Jill > > ______________________________
Dee, I'm glad that you're back with us again. A few (?) words about Grisoft, AVG program. Sometimes it takes numerous attempts to get the new definations but it's a FREE program that does work which sure is better than having none. I have it and also the paid Norton, so I'm not 'pushing' Grisoft. What I AM PUSHING is that everyone who doesn't have an anti virus program learns from your costly lesson and GETS ONE. I will now jump off of the soapbox (again), Sue* ----- Original Message ----- > Hi Everyone, > I was another victim of the badtrans worm virus so a few of you who I've > corresponded with probably received messages from me with the attachment.
