Gee WFN ... you must be psychic knowing what I was thinking.
(Duh, hey look at them fireworks, man, ain't dat cool. I like these
better'n the graphics Harley used to send out!)
=========
Seriously ... Staffan, it could have easily been me. I assumed that when the
virus protection was installed that it automatically notified me (beeped,
buzzed or whatever) of an impending "bad thing" about to happen.
Obviously not ...
I believe that my IE5.0 emails files are held in "C:\Program Files\Outlook
Express\Walter Lake\Mail"
So when an email arrives, I should get the InnoculateIT program to check
that file. I've tried "drag and drop" the email into InnoculateIT without
success.
Daniel wrote the following .."Although I have a filter for MetaStock
ListServ posts, this message showed up in my Inbox (because of the Reply-TO
format). I started my Anti-Virus program and clicked on the Happy99.EXE
file. Immediately I got a virus alert from NAV v5. ..."
Since he had to manually start the anti-virus program ... visual inspection
was the line of defense that saved him from infection.
Why isn't this automatic?
Maybe somebody can point me towards some information on the web, etc. Hello
Ton, what have you got in your files?
Anyway ... I'm just relieved that my learning experience about virus was the
happy99 virus and not something more sinister.
Best regards
