I dislike posting off topic subjects but in view of the problems the
Sircam virus caused several regulars a while back I think one warning
is justified.

The latest Ninba virus is a really malicious virus that also attaches
jave script versions to html documents amongst other things, so if
you have your own website please make sure your virus software is
bang up to date. Otherwise you may upload an infected file to your
site!! .

My son has just spent the best part of 24 hours purging this from the
company systems.... despite them having up to date protections and
fire walls.

I have linked to the info page of Mcafee. Very ugly reading

Remember. If you have not updated the dat files on your virus program
today you will not have ANY defence against this. Note the warning in
bold type on the Mcafee site *the attachment can be executed even if
the user does not open it*!!!!!
