There wasn't a 24.4kb attachment with it. If so you have just been attacked by the Netasky Virus

yes, Rsix, I had it too. its a virus. but its not their fault. Ive had them from the BBC, a lot of members of this board, and various other sources.
I actually think this board is a catalyst for it. because I know fro instance, Im not on GPricey's address book, but Ive had it from him.
but as long as Mr Norton does the business, I'll still visit here!

Its not them Rsix, they have made contact to someone on Shrews before, just a chain through most members probably.
Your email must be not hidden on here i guess?

Its a virus that attacks people email address book, then it attach's itself to all the addressses and forwards itself on to the names. then anyone who hasn't got a virus checker will forward it on again and so on. its an evil little bugger

I can understand getting it from private individuals, who may not have a virus checker, but Ive had it from Universities, BBC, Radcliffe Borough, and various other organisations.
