    2. >From what I read, probably not but it sounds like it will go out to all the people you have received e-mails from but have not read as of yet. Here are the exact words of Fabian Enterprises: A new variant of Badtrans has been discovered, referred to as Badtrans.b. AVERT has raised the Risk Assessment on this variant of W32/Badtrans@MM to HIGH RISK for Consumers. We have received many reports from the home users that they have become infected. It is believed that failure to upsdate virus scanners recently has caused this increase in occurance. ... It is a mass-mailing worm that drops a remote-access Trojan. The virus arrives via email in Microsoft Outlook and attemts to send itself by replying to unread email messages. I am trying to find even more detailed information and if find, will let you know where to find it also. Bob
