Virus
attacks seem to be on the rise. I have now put Norton SystemWorks in my Startup
folder to remind me to do a live update every morning before downloading any
email. It is quick and will keep one current.

Also
on another related front, neither Rambooster or Cacheman will alter system.ini
in the way I was suggesting to force Windows to use all RAM before the swapfile.
I have discovered that programs do not return memory when they close and
Rambooster works great here. Thanks for the suggestion.

!!!!!!!!!!Neo,I now see why my anti-virus program
didn't catch Navadid3. I use Norton but I hadn't updated it recently so it
didn't detect this virus when I downloaded it. After reading your message
about this virus, I updated Norton and then scanned my hard drive. That's when
it found the virus. I'm learning, and fortunately I didn't get hurt
this time.Thanks again.TomAt 04:04 PM 11/19/2000

This virus is only a week or two old. I update virus definition once or
twice per day. I use Norton and it picked it up as soon as the email
arrived. Make sure you are scanning your email and have everything set to
high security. <FONT color=#008080 face=arial

neo,
Thanks for the warning! I ran my anti-virus program and it found and
deleted it. I thought it was supposed to catch these things when they were
downloaded but I was obviously wrong.
Thanks again!

The recent message submitted by Jim on "Re: Delta Phenomenon" is
infected with the virus: W32.Navidad in the attachment
"Navidad3.exe".
You should not open the attachment, delete the email message, and do
a full virus scan on your system with the latest definitions.
