FOOT-AND-MOUTH BELIEVED TO BE FIRST VIRUS
UNABLE TO SPREAD THROUGH MICROSOFT
OUTLOOK EXPRESS. Researchers Shocked to Finally
Find Virus That Email App Doesn't Like
Scientists at the Centers for Disease Control and Symantec's
AntiVirus Research Center today confirmed that
foot-and-mouth disease cannot be spread by Microsoft's
Outlook Express email application, believed to be the first time
the program has ever failed to propagate a major virus.
"Frankly, we've never heard of a virus that couldn't spread
through Microsoft Outlook Express, so our findings were, to
say the least, unexpected," said Clive Sarnow, director of the
CDC's infectious disease unit.
The study was immediately hailed by British officials, who
said it will save millions of pounds and thousands of man hours.
"Up until now we have, quite naturally, assumed that both
foot-and-mouth and mad cow were spread by Microsoft
Outlook Express," said Nick Brown, Britain's Agriculture
Minister. "By eliminating it, we can focus our resources
elsewhere."
However, researchers in the Netherlands, where
foot-and-mouth has recently appeared, said they are not
yet prepared to disqualify Outlook Express, which has been the
progenitor of viruses such as "I Love You," "Bubbleboy,"
"Anna Kournikova," and "Naked Wife," to name but a few.
Said Nils Overmars, director of the Molecular Virology Lab
at Leiden University: "It's not that we don't trust the research,
it's just that as scientists, we are trained to be skeptical of
any finding that flies in the face of established truth. And this
one flies in the face like a blind drunk sparrow."
Executives at Microsoft, meanwhile, were equally skeptical,
insisting that Outlook Express's patented Virus Transfer
Protocol (VTP) has proven virtually pervious to any virus.
The company, however, will issue a free VTP patch if it
turns out the application is not vulnerable to foot-and-mouth.
Such an admission would be embarrassing for the software
giant, but Symantec virologist Ariel Kologne insisted that
no one is more humiliated by the study than she is. "Only
last week, I had a reporter ask if the foot-and-mouth
virus spreads through Microsoft Outlook Express, and I
told him, 'Doesn't everything?'" she recalled. "Who would've
thought?"

he! he! he! ;-)
Had a virus attack yesterday, so this comes as a nice reminder of OE's
capabilities, if I had still got OE, I would probably be doing a nice
clean up operation this morning, as it is Eudora just grinned and
didn't open it automatically as OE would have done. Also a feature
which I quite like now, which at first thought looked to be some sort
of silly gimmick, is its Red Hot Chilli Pepper warning system for bad
language ;-)
Had to laugh yesterday, when a friend of mine whom I consider as a non
swearer, got 3 Red Hot Chilli Peppers for his use of the word Bullshit
in a message. Perhaps I should ask him to exchange to Pedt's famous
Bovine Fodder term instead ;-)

I have to confess I DO still use OE, I suppose I am so used to
how bad it is, I am scared to change! lol. I like the sound of that
warning system, might have to get it just to try that!

Interestingly enough, its amazing how many are switching from OE, as
can be witnessed from the Eudora NG.
The initial changeover was a little daunting, but like yourself Dean
it was probably more to do with how used to OE I had got, and a case
of continuing to accept the unacceptable. But now I am certainly glad
I made the move as Eudora allows me to work on without the hindrances
that OE gave me. With OE I had to put in place a system that should be
there anyway, but isn't and on occasion that human system failed me,
as I don't always have eyes in the back of my head ;-)

Hehe. Mind you depends on what it defines as 'bad language'. IIRC, web
pages showing the word 'Scunthorpe' were (and perhaps still are) getting
warnings/dumped from such as CyberPatrol and NetNanny.

I had not seen it anywhere else at the time of posting it, I did not
realise it was everywhere already, I just thought it would amuse a
few people. I woke up in a bad mood and it cheered me up, I
just wanted to do the same to others.

After reading a message on one of the NGs from Richard Huelin about
abuse@ BT, I was rather reluctant to post to them, but did so anyway,

Its a little more robust than Cyber Patrol/Net Nanny on this, it seems
to accept Essex, atlthough I haven't tried Essex Girls yet ;-)

From the way you so consistently manage to get your foot in your
mouth when you say anything, it comes as no great surprise that
you posted something so completely irreverent and without any
connection whatsoever in regard to webspace authoring.
When someone posts something which offends you, you never
hesitate to make your views known. Coming from a farming family
and having recently attended the funeral of a relation for whom
the present crisis proved to be the last straw I personally do
not find the topic of Foot and Mouth amusing. If you really want
to be amusing and droll why don't you post the link to your
friends and family page?

It was basically a joke about OE, a program the majority of
people in this group use, I did put in the subject that it was OT.

I am sorry, but if everybody avoided every subject that might
offend somebody then there would be nothing to say, I seem
to remember YOU posting a message to me about hoping I
would break both my legs, you then appologised when you
later found out I am disabled. I am very sorry for your loss
and I would not have posted it if I had known.

Thanks for the plug! Do you think I put a picture of me as a baby
on there for serious reasons, I am happy for everybody to see that
page, why else would I put it on my site!
After our little exchange of words in Announce I would like this

I would like to add that my Dad is an Ice Cream man, that may
not sound farming related, but the company he works for only
does National Trust places and shows like the Kent show, all of
which are cancelled, closed or just scaled down. He is now not
working because of foot and mouth and losing all the money he
should be earning, so my family are being affected by it too and it
was HIM that sent me the joke.

You really should seek medical attention for verbal incontinence,
after your last message I was going to let the matter drop, but
as usual you had to drag another irrelevance up in order to
support your stupidity in posting an off topic message. How on
earth can you compare the woes of an unemployed ice cream man to
those suffered by farmers?
Many of the herds lost represent the life time work of several
generations. How can you compare the sound of a silent trike to
the sound of the humane killer as the slaughtermen goes about his
business? How can you compare your dad having to collect his
giro to seeing a lifetimes work going up in flames? How do you
compare the isolation of being confined to the farm and all the
restrictions placed on those whose animals have been infected?
While I have no problem with the feeble minded sharing jokes, I
feel that sharing them by posting to this group is very poor
netiquette and that had you the slightest ounce of intelligence
that you would have understood what I meant by "You should be on
the radio, then we could turn it off" Of course I should have
known better and that you would defend your bad taste to the
bitter end.

Well I am not converted yet, I downloaded Eudora and installed

I use Agent for news and OE for mail. I wish to continue with Agent
for news.
1) Does the opera mail software allow downloads from multiple mail
servers in one dial-up (without messing around with .ini files etc) ?
2) Can HTML mail be read in Opera?
I prefer email in plain text but have to compromise on this as a lot
of people send HTML mail these days.

I'm running Opera 5.0 here. I gave up trying to set the newsreader

use it off-line.
Your headers say that you use Turnpike rather than Opera for
newsreading, Tony?

Which reminds me IIRC April is supposed to be the month that the
(renamed) 1st Page 2000 is to be relaunched with new features - hmmm no
email from them yet, maybe I'll revisit their web site to see if there
is more news.
