Some of you are probably wondering why you couldn't get to the site earlier today.

At about midnight, 1/25/2003, a new virus took over C3VR's database. If you want to read about the virus, you can click here.

Hopefully my hosting company now has it under control.

Thanks for your patience.

No. It was a worm that spread from one system to another, on its own.

Perhaps you've heard about it in the news already, but if affected many compters all over the world!
