Ah ! My first heckler... |biggrin| I'm happy to say I like being a "wierdo". While YINZ guys are eating TUMS and wasting time trying to fix your Windoz boxes, us wierdos are doing productive work or happily web surfing. I won't even mention the fact the money and time spent on virus software for your Windoz boxes, could be spent on the vette... |laugh|
That $100 spent on software will keep me supplied with Zaino for the summer. |hippie|
One more thing (I'm on a roll |biggrin| ) Any pimply faced, snot nosed, adolescent can write a virus for Windoz, but it takes a real weirdo/man to create a virus for a Mac|haha| |wink|

Vette(s): 82 Collector Edition (*sold 12/2006)
Gee, after reading all this, I have Norton also, do I need to go check someplace or so a scan or something to see if it's on my system or not? Advise needed here since I don't know much about viruses. Computer one's at least! |smile|

Darla if you have Norton and it was setup correct, it constantly runs in the backround. it would have discovered the virus if it was there. This, of course, is if you kept your program up to date with current "patches"

There seems to be a bit of an increase in virus activity lately. We've got a few warnings
from our Data Security folks here at work. YINZ Windoz people may want to make sure
you have the latest updates from Norton or McAfee... I think the latest verson from
McAfee is 4.0.4201.
