Guest guest Posted August 22, 2003 Report Share Posted August 22, 2003 Warning to everyone!!! I have just deleted a number of emails which came in to Nature Cure with the SOBIG VIRUS in them! I also just learned from a friend that she is having to get her ISP to turn her service OFF temporarily, as she has gotten over TWO THOUSAND EMAILS TODAY of the virus, and 1700 YESTERDAY! This is beyond belief! So don't open ANY ATTACHMENT unless you are dead certain you know who it came from - even then, better think twice!!! Look for very common words in the subject - in fact, I think one of the phrases IS " Virus Warning " ! Linda Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 27, 2003 Report Share Posted August 27, 2003 Linda: I hope you have Symantec's antivirus software ( http://www.symantec.com/downloads/) on your computer. It will protect your emails plus block any intrusion etc. There are other brands like McAfee's antivirus that is also good. ( http://us.mcafee.com/default.asp) I use Peter Norton's Symantec's on my home computer plus the 200 workstations and servers at work. This software has blocked and killed literally 100's of virus and worms. thanks, Charles - " Linda " <ForumsNStuff <nature cure > Thursday, August 21, 2003 7:26 PM [nature cure] VIRUS WARNING FROM LINDA > Warning to everyone!!!
