Sedona: WARNING TO ALL (hope this is at least of interest)

Warning: There is a computer virus that is being sent across the Internet. If you receive an e-mail message with the subject line "Good Times", DO NOT READ the message, DELETE it immediately.

This is a message that was passed on by our Corporate Computer Services Division today. If you load the file (by viewing it (reading your mail message)) then it will rewrite your hard drive, obliterating anything on it. This was a message released by the FCC last Wednesday. This is a new computer virus that has been engineered by a user of America On Line.

Other warning do not download any file named PKZIP300 regardless of the extension. This is a Trojan Horse Virus on the internet with the name PKZIP300.ZIP, so named to give the impression that this file is a new version of the PKZIP software used to "ZIP" (compress) files. This file will wipe your hard disk clean and affect modems at 14.4 and hhigher.

This is an extremely destructive virus and there is not yet a way of cleaning up this one.

BTW, Sedona it was the weekend and some of us were bored but you are correct we should have been at the bar.

Tara
