Hello G.A.Griggs,

Sarah? :-)

[SNIP the virus alert]

Puh-lease. I've always found it curious the way people who send these virus
alerts KNOW that the receivers of it are going to be dumb and send it on.
Using language like "If you get it you will lose everything! Someone from
the Internet will get your passwords!" etc. is just plain nonsense.

I've never paid attention to any virus alerts I get off friends - they can't
be trusted - and I certainly don't pass them on myself. It's basically a
chain mail disguised.

Cheers,
GazChap.
