GEN: Back to school viruses

[Joanne Ladewig <shatz1@EARTHLINK.NET>]

Netters:

Many of us will be heading back to school very soon, and that means that
hundreds of thousands of computers will be downloading email held over the
summer months. Be sure to check with your tech person and make sure your
school-site computer(s) are up-to-date on virus protection before
down-loading all those messages.  The Klez virus is still making the rounds
using different subject lines and return addresses. There are plenty of
other viruses besides - I update my home computer at least twice weekly and
there is nearly always at least one new update available if not several!
Since January the Klez virus has attempted to infect my computer a minimum
of 26 times!

Happy Back-to-School Days!
