LM->rf> Do NOT post hoax "email virus" (Good Times/Deeyenda/etc) warnings
  ->rf> in this conference!
LM->Eh... have you heard about the new word macro virus which uses MS Mail to
  ->spread infected files? I think, not all such warnings all hoaxes... ok,
  ->goodtimes ("destroy the cpu" :-) is nonsens, but other things like that
  ->_are_ possible and _have been_ done!
Here we go again.... you mention in your post "New (which it's not) Word
macro virus". The *macro* IS a virus and has little to do with E-Mail. A
macro can me send via E-Mail (any E-Mail application will do this) but
an "E-mail virus" does not exits. If I send an E-Mail to someone using
MS Mail they cannot become infected by purely reading that E-Mail. Rod's
right... talking about "E-Mail viruses" only serves to spread the rumors
that they exist (they do not).
