Dear Don, Dave and List;
I have had a couple of the snowwhite's get to me, but my provider had a program
he runs weekly and has caught two before I got them in the past week. He says
that he catches/stops about four virus's a week from going any further. His
program cost $40 and took two hours to install.
I always pitch the unwanted or spam emails anyway. I like my boss, and don't
want to get rich quick, or go on a cruise. Maybe it's a government plot to
cripple our computers to save electricity and our minds...
Burrr.....
