Re: Re: [iris-photos] VIRUS CONFIRMED
Hi Everybody,
I am just now back to the internet. Yes I got a virus from a home loan junkmail with no attachment. Kansas.net told me they caught all of the outgoing mail, 1 letter, and did not send it on. The virus took over my computer within 5 minutes of when I got it and I had to take it to be reprogrammed and the virus removed. I'm sorry if I sent it out to you guys. I hope no one had the trouble I had. My computer is just like it came out of the box, no addresses or documents.
Again I am sincerely sorry,
Wendy

IIRC MTX blocks access to anti-virus websites so it might be necessary to
use download.com (or tucows.com) to download virus scanner updates if
your already infected
