I don't know if it is a common occurrence or just some sick *$%^*&##!
spreading his/her worms and viruses across the web. I highly recommend
everyone to invest in Norton System Works 2001. One of these sick puppies
in cyberspace has been sending me 3 to 4 separate emails with the same type
of worm that hit Stormwater Pro. I block every email address after killing
the worm/virus with Norton System Works 2001, but yet another one is sent
with a another falsified email address originating from
http://www.videotron.com in Canada. Norton scans every single incoming
email as it arrives in outlook and immediately sends up a warning screen
when a critter is detected. A series of panels guides the user through the
quarantine and deletion process.
After my current attack of incoming worms to Outlook, I think I prefer my
recent mass spamming incident when someone in cyberspace sent me 7,300
emails in one day, each with a separate falsified Yahoo email address,
rather than my current email situation. Getting tired of running Norton
Live updates and scanning my computer numerous times each day. Guess I get
to change my email address (AGAIN) when I return to ATL from my Pennsylvania
endangered species survey.
