A quick comment before this thread is killed. Any Virus warning that contains wording similar to the following "The virus called xxxx.exe is not detected by Norton or McAfee anti-virus systems" is almost 100 percent certain to be a hoax and the only danger is if you follow the advice in the warning. This type of email is in and of itself a problem as it ties up the internet bands and causes some people to damage there PCs. In many years of working with computers and PCs I am not aware of any virus that Norton and/or McAfee software that was current would not identify and correct. Lee
