I downloaded 'Zone Alarm' from the net. It is a free
firewall, and basically I have been spared from receiving any of
the viruses - don't know about attached ones, as I don't open
attachments.

My secretary contacted me as she got one of those worms that went out to
her
entire address book and I never got it.

Warmly, Maria

Dear Liz, it has been going for ages ever since someone allegedly hacked
into the Yahoo ident passwords. I have had hundreds. I think harmless but
best not to open them just in case. This twit did actually identify
themselves but I don't know if they have been suitably dealt with.

They might also come as though from people you know but can be seen as such
because they always have the attachment icon and the subject header is
strange or silly.

Best, Joy

Yup, same thing. I assume that the list address has just been "harvested"
same as other addresses are, in which case there's nothing the list itself
can do about it (sigh)...
