Some *$&^£(! toad has tried to give me an infected .scr file. If you
receive an email with the subject: Snowhite and the Seven Dwarfs - The
REAL story! From: Hahaha <hah...@sexyfun.net>, consign it to the fiery
furnace pronto.

4 feet of electrified cold steel up the khyber sounds about right to me!

By all accounts a lot of PC users are unaware that they have been
infected with it. For those who wish to know more about the
virus the links below might be useful.

I've had more copies recently that I know what to do with.

I happen to have a client (not one listed on my site) who doesn't
believe in antivirus measures or security - I get at least two a

if they put an AV program on their system, it'd have a right fit.
