Re: Computer worm brewing

I have never had to pay them to fix problems. My ISP, which is Time Warner, gave me a number that went directly to a tech. The problem was fixed quickly, and I've had no trouble since.

Oh, yeah, like Symantec is going to help me out. Norton is, in general,
a good program, but their customer service sucks. It's just $40 down the
tubes.


On a better note though, the Macafee on the XP just kicked into gear last night, so I'm in good shape on that one.

That is NOT good Kitty..... granted most W98 don't have the holes that XP

you straighten it out.

Thanks for the heads-up Jim. Many of these viruses and worms aren't
written to hurt Win98 systems which is good because I don't have
protection on this computer and my other Win98 computer has a new Norton
subscription that refuses to work. I have McAfee on an XP but can't
figure that program out, but hoping it is working.

There is a new computer worm in circulation (called Blackworm) which
will start deleting anti-viral software and .exl, .doc, .pdf, etc.
files on Windows machines on 3 February. For further info, see:
