Guest guest Posted November 29, 2001 Report Share Posted November 29, 2001 Worm_Badtrans.B is the new virus going around. Norton and McAffee posted alerts just 4 days ago. You do not have to open the attachment. My understanding just having the email open up is enough for it to go to work. I'm sorry if this is redundant info, another list that I am on has been hit pretty hard with this virus. As someone mentioned you can go to housecalls.com to get a free scan of your system. I have really enjoyed all of the recipes that have been posted. I love getting new ideas on fixing meatless meals. Thank you. Below is a recipe favorite of my family.
