Dear Cow: How about a little humor for a great guy. A friend of mine got the SASSER WORM.. She stayed up until 3 am to talk to Microsoft Tech help. She is quite computer literate so she and the tech guy got talking after he walked her through the back door as to how to repair her computer. He said he was talking to this older woman who had called in with a complaint about her computer's strange behavior.. WHen the technician said that she had a computer virus... one called a worm. The woman hesitated and then replied... That's impossible. I have not taken my computer OUTSIDE. THis thread which you support so well helps those of us who might say the same thing to straighten our computers out. THANKS.
