    1. [VAAMHERS-L] Final posting on Early Settlers......
    2. Janet B
    3. I am very sorry to report that I'm unable to send the attachments of the document in neat columns promised to those who asked. I sent two out fine and then got an e-mail from someone on the Bedford list regarding the early settlers which had an attachment containing a virus in it. As the e-mail told me to take a look at the attachment in regards to my posting, it was apparently done on purpose and not one that sneaked in on someone's mailing list. Fortunately, my anti-virus program kicked in when I tried to open it, thinking it was more genealogical information, and denied the "worm" access, but just to be safe I'm really hesitant to send any attachments right now for fear of a hidden virus that would affect your computer. That in addition to the unkind e-mail received from a Campbell lister and the fact that I've been through all this before with another e-mail address and rootsweb postings- my husband absolutely insisted on a new e-mail change which should be effective anytime this day and an end to any type of online genealogy and posting. I'm sorry to say that even in the mild hobby of genealogy there are a few unkind people. So, I guess it's just the old fashioned way of looking in courthouses and libraries for me (which is very enjoyable too)! I hope everyone has good luck in their searches and I caution the Bedford listers not to open any attachments labeled README.TXT with a little .pif at the end. Again, the two I sent out to Rob and John were totally safe as I received the virus after I mailed those. Thanks, Janet
