BE CAREFUL OUT THERE.

FYI

The virus is now sending e-mails that show it is “from” other forum users. The text is still the same, i.e., “I sent this to you to get your advice.”

OK, so the Virus hit me good. How can I get my computer re-booted to fix it? Signed, open to ideas.

I almost gave up…

called Compaq up…They “reverted the registry” took about 5 minutes and bingo …all fixed

Go to the Norton site. http://www.sarc.com/avcenter/venc/data/w32.sircam.worm@mm.html

Reverting the registry is a great idea IF the virus hasn’t hit any .exe files. Info is at the above page.

Yep, ditto for me too. Just don’t open an attachment.

Dan,
That’s correct — it’s the attachments that can get you.
A good practice to follow with attachments is:
(a) don’t open an attachment unless you know the sender and specifically requested that it be sent to you;
(b) even if you did request it, scan the attachment with your antivirus software before opening it.

Cheers,

Roger

Dan and Gary

The virus is coming in under your names. Dan’s name has been on 5 of my emails and Gary has sent 2.

Sorry bout that.
