    1. [WVGREENB] Virus Warning
    2. Jim & Sue Beard
    3. Just wanted to let you all know that I got the virus that has the message "Take a look to the attachment" from a Mary Marti at mmarti@ktis.net who is on this forum. This virus, once you have it, will send a message directly to anyone that post a message to the list. If you have posted and get part of your message back with the message "take a look to the attachment" following the rest of the message, DO NOT OPEN it. Delete it immediately, then delete it from your deleted file. Mary Marti, I know you probably don't know you have the virus. You must have opened an attachment that had that note above in the message body. You need to stay off line or at least, not start your e-mail program as it will send that virus to everyone that you recieve an e-mail from. Remember folks, Rootsweb does not allow attachments through, so this message will come to you direct but may have the forum name in the subject. Never open an attachment unless you are sure it is safe and also remember some virus protection programs do NOT find a virus in e-mail. As soon as Mary reads this, I will get another message with the virus unless she has found out she has the virus and has cleaned her system. I belong to many Rootsweb forum and have got this message several times and have deleted it each time and have never gotten the virus, so don't panic, people, just be on guard, and when in doubt on an attachment, don't open, DELETE. Jim
