kind of interesting, outlook was ready to just open it right up, meaning that the virus was launched even as my email was checked, I didn't even try and open it up, my virus scanner just told me it was infected as it came in. It did, however, copy itself to my temporary internet files directory before Norton caught it so my advice to everyone out there who gets this is to A)avoid using outlook for a day or so and B)clear out your temp directories regardless. --- Chris Dawson <ChrisD@productsafet.com> wrote:

or d just plain stop using outlook, its proven a dangerous client. its integration with the windows api is too close. On Fri, 19 Apr 2002, omz wrote:
