Re: [iris-photos] A MESSAGE FROM E ROYAL RE VIRUS

From: "Bob & Leslie Liddiard" <liddiard@esn.net>

Hi All,

I would like to extend my apologies to Earnie and the list for my anger at the time that the virus attached itself to my computer.  I lost everything on my computer, but I now realize that this wasn't Earnie's fault.  I have a brand new Norton Anti-Virus program that had been installed in December, but it did not detect this virus even though the attachment was not opened.  I certainly hope that Earnie will continue to post to the list and share his valuable knowledge.  Thank you.

  Athur, I did write John a note to post, which he did and I thank him for
  that. I do not mind if you post this to Iris-Talk or not.  I will not be
  able to because I willingly took myself off the list when this unfortunate
  worm hit my computer. Mark Cook is right about one thing. When it was opened
  up, the worm took over my address book and forwarded itself out. I DID NOT
  do this. Embarrassment had nothing to do with not posting anything to the
  list. I was out of town all weekend at a Iris meeting at Henry Horton State
  Park in Tenn.to get Judges Training. Again I am sorry for any trouble that
  this may have caused. It  has never any intention of mine but to enjoy the
  Iris-Talk, read and learn something from other Iris people. I live in
  western Kentucky "USA" belong to a Iris Society called Ken-Ten that is in
  Region 7. I have been a member of the American Iris Society for 9 years and
  have growing Iris for app. 20 plus years. That is a little history on me. I
  have not tried to hide anything. My computer has a virus protection system
  in it although it was out dated. It will be upgraded to prevent this for the
  future. I guess someone had to be the unlucky soul to have brought awareness
  about a potential problem to all. Again sorry I would have never in my
  wildest dreams caused any problems. If people still want to throw stones
  they are more than welcome.I just hope they are not the next victim.

  The virus came by way of a friend that I have known for over 10 years. He was also a victim of this unfortunate escapade of events. If you think my reply was appropriate then please post it to the list.  Best wishes Ernie
