Werd to the wise, there's a huge virus outbreak, it's called 'MyDoomA', I have received 19 in the last ten minutes......

The tip off is (of course) an attachment, but the real clue is that it's about 30k in size.

Forwarned......

oh, er... virus, eh?? too bad.

Macs rule :cool:

haha my imac is safe!

You are a MEAN man, Andrew, but it will take more than 19 stinkin' virii to slow ME down!

Be nice to me or the HorsePower Nazi might just say "NO HORSE POWER FOR YOU!"

LOVE your avatar. Did you take the photo? Very creative.

No, must confess, stole it from a British magazine review....

yes, new avatar is pretty spiffy... i just don't know what an "orthodox ricer" is... does that mean you take the very prudent, safe, tried and true, old school approach to rice??

i don't hve to worry about no horsepower nazi, i'll be a power god (someday) Ray. *is done with university, onto "smaller" and better things... eventually*

this particular threat is a mass mailing worm...by 9am this morning we had over 1800 emails stripped of the mydoom attachment...i don't know how many since but it's tripled that number by now...

anyways, the plural of a computer virus is viruses not virii...
