Just wanted to warn people that a sign of the MyDoom Virus is returned e mails saying "undeliverable" to people you have never heard of , never mind sent mails too.
AOL customers are meant to be "reasonably" safe but it is something to watch out for :(
Turn on those Virus detectors

Sorry, it's one of those "link doesn't work" days. :D

Its not because you have the virus - its because someone else has it and its using email addresses in their address books to send emails out ;) As long as you have anti-virus and don't open attachments from folks you don't know, you'll be fine...

There's an even worse one coming out now aswell...so time to update ;)
- By kath_barr [gb] Date 05.02.04 12:11 UTC
Any idea what it's called?

These things make me really nervous... I'd curl up and die without my puter :(

LOL Lel, that's the link I just gave you. :D No, I meant the new virus that Chloe said was coming. Thanks anyway :)

Aren't links a faff? Why don't they work like in emails, just copy and paste and there they are.

Kath. xx

I was trying to be helpful by doing a link for you as yours didnt work :rolleyes:
But mine never worked either :eek:
- By kath_barr [gb] Date 06.02.04 10:34 UTC
Oh sorry Lel, right thanks. :)
- By Carla Date 06.02.04 09:13 UTC

- By kath_barr [gb] Date 06.02.04 10:34 UTC
Thanks Chloe. :)

Do we know what it does yet/how it looks when arriving?  I have been getting several a day of the original one. virus protection working non stop!  A lot seem USA originated, but who knows, could just be someone has a lot of USA addresses in their address book!
bye
