Are you sure this isn't a Windows-only virus? Our Mac network is still as safe as ever behind the OS firewall...

I dont know. my internet provider had them blocked. so i just passed on the virus alert to those who may be affected or interested.

For about the last 4 weeks i have been out at my opal mine. so i dont have a computer out there. so i have not been around to visit any web sites or anything else. but like everuone else i do get plenty of spam emails. my system is set to block most spam. and my server is also blocking a big percentage of these too. they said that they had been blocked in the last 7 days. so they never actually got into my system. i also use TREND MICRO. a very good system. my wife is the only other person who uses the computer. and will not opean any emails that she is suspicious of. even if they get past all the systems in place. basically she answers emails regarding ebay auctions, and does not know how to visit web pages or other sites except for ebay and vendio.
I also run spybot and several other programmes as well on a regular basis.
got some nice opals this time. and some nice photos of sunsets

I love opals! My brother gave me one shaped like an owl. It was made into a pendant. And, his partner had one in a geometric shape which he paired with an antique rose cut diamond. Made that into a necklace for me. I love them both!

I use MSN Hotmail & all incoming messages are screened by Trend Micro, so I never worry. I also have Norton AV 2005 running 24/7.
