Re: Another Virus warning

Thanks folks. The warning came from a buff who earns his living sorting out people's computers, so I thought it'd do no harm to be aware.

Exactly the right approach Honey.

If people want to post up threads to help people not get viruses then they really need to have a basic appreciation of PC security. OP is somewhat lacking here having actually opened an email from an unknown source.

If you bothered to read the post correctly you will know that she did NOT open an email from an unknown source. So your post is particularly unhelpful.

And your biblical quote applies to your post rather than to hers...

As it happens Mr. Know-It-All, you haven't got the faintest clue what I open or don't open.
You always seem to think you know everything about every subject in the universe, yet you have never learned humility, common sense, or how to stop the yearning to control others.
In simple terms, so you understand, stuff your sarcastic comments, and if you have nothing nice to say, bugger off and leave me alone. I am very happy in my little world thankyou.

You did right to warn others, I hope you don't think I was being rude in any way because I stated I don't open unsolicited mail, it wasn't meant to be a criticism just to make others aware in case they do
