Movie Virus info

I will try to explain how virus worms work the best I can so people are not sending nasty grams to innocent people. How these virus work is they infect the host computer, copy themselves and pick different email address from the host address book and send it self out. Now the tricky part of this virus is it mocks the senders address so who you see as sending you this worm is NOT I repeat NOT the real sender. The worm that we all got that said it was from Hooked On Embroidery group did not get sent to the list. It in fact mocked the address so we all thought it was. Someone or many someones on this list has the virus and has all of our email address and I am sure is completely oblivious to it all. You will NOT I repeat NOT get a virus sent to you through a yahoo list. Yahoo has the most sophisticated up to date virus protection. However if members of the list do not have virus protection and have it updated at least once a week (I recommend every other day) we are all vulnerable through that persons infected computer.
OVERVIEW: 1. The person who was the sender is not the real sender 2. No virus was sent to the list through the Hooked On Embroidery group. 3. Someone on this list has this virus 4. UPDATE your virus software NOW! Venus |

Venus. Thank you for the information on the virus. I did not know how it worked,but I did know that Hookedonembroidery would not send a virus themselves.I appreciate the info.I do keep mind updated . When I got my computer I thought I had virus protection FOREVER. GGGGGGG (Dumb ME)An I got a virus after mine had expired THEN I found out that I needed to get protection.I was a true green horne when I got my computer. Thank you for taking the time to help others. Faye.
