Guest guest Posted November 28, 2001 Report Share Posted November 28, 2001 Your messages with downloads may not have been from someone trying to share information. There is a really bad virus going around that sends out messages automatically. My guess is that this was what you received. I got one from this group too. You may need to check your system for the Badtrans virus. ArtistDesigner [ArtistDesigner] Wednesday, November 28, 2001 12:51 PM Gettingwell about Jamba Juice post I posted a question about Jamba Juice the other day and so far already 2 people have sent me some sort of download with no explaination as to what it is. I do not want anyone to send me any sort of thing like this please. I did try to download the first one sent but nothing would appear now I wonder if I was sent a virus. I did not try to download the second. In both cases I tried to send a note to the person who sent it but I got a mailer demon saying it was undeliverable so it makes me wonder about the agenda of those who sent it. Please, whoever you are...I want no more correspondence from you.

Guest guest Posted November 28, 2001 Report Share Posted November 28, 2001 It was the badtrans virus that just came thru with Lee Elders message. So everyone, be careful. You can get free virus checkers that you download via the Internet. It really pays to do this so you don't get caught, and then send them to a hundred others before you realise what is happening.

Oh, maybe its only outlook express. I have eudora and Ive had a >number of blank messages lately but no attachments. Likewise, I use Eudora and have got more blank messages within the last few days than I have had in the last year or so. My message from Lee was blank. But.... I have had several from trusted friends that are somewhat advanced in comptuter use. This don't mean they could not hit the send key on a blank. Gee, I think I have done in once in 10 years. It really has me worried. Wayne Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
