Another Virus Question

[Sims-n-Sons]

"if everyone  dumped OE and used a true email
program that stuck to the rules 90% of viruses would disappear
overnight."

Well, in that case, what would you consider a 'true email program'?  I am
using Microsoft Outlook, not Outlook Express.  Does that qualify?

Thanks,
Bobby Sims

Possible explanation is some one on the list who has emailed you
privately has a virus -  the type that fakes headers and takes one of
the email address out of the address books you are the unlucky one -
what you need is a full email off some one who has received one of these
emails  that look like they came  from you. From the header you can see
who it really is. He/she logs on to get mail form piano tech and send
out a fresh batch of viruses.

All have one thing in common outlook express most email viruses use the
IFRAME exploit  to launch.
