we had a virus on our computer that came out about two wekks ago. it attacks the win32dll file. we had to delete that file and put in a clean one, hopefully that stopped it. no problems so far. we do not have norton antivirus. but thinking of getting it. the virus hahahah snow white and the seven...... is a real virus and not a hoax. it attaches to emails and sends it whereever. even if you don't open it, it will still attach. ours started reading fatal errors. check your machine for viruses with a very good virus dector. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Jim Allen" <jall@watervalley.net> To: <SC-OLD-PENDLETON-DIST-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Sunday, January 07, 2001 6:16 PM Subject: RE: [SC-OPD] Computer shut down > Thanks Eldon, that may be the problem since I have only 96 megs of > RAM.
