New Virus

[Phil Pavlik]

office Outlook 2002 doesn't even allow me to open that attachment.
Update your software.  They are not all prey to this virus.

Also, though I am guilty now too, all these messages every time a virus
is sent to the list are silly.  Who really doesn't know how to handle a
virus that is on this list?  Perhaps a better target for the e-mails is
intervolve.com, who could easily void the Amy Powell-Moman account since
it is being repeatedly used to send viruses.

Please, do not open the attachment sent from "Amy Powell-Moman"=20
<amy at intervolve.com> to ACT-R group if you work in Windows.

As many of you have probably recognized, this is a new virus, quite=20
dangerous. I assme, you will get some notices from your computing=20
folks in a day or so.  My overall suggestion - do not use MS clients=20
for reading mail on Windows. They are the prey of all these viruses.=20
Use free Netscape, Eudora, Mulbery etc mailers that do not have a=20
dangerous habit to auto-open attachments.
