Last night, I accepted a virus infected e-mail from a legitimate customer, who probably did not know he had the virus himself due to the nature of this particular worm.

This worm has gone through our e-mail address application and mailed itself to everyone on our list...

While the virus itself is not reported to be serious in comparison to others, it is inconvenient nonetheless and requires that it be dealt with quickly to avoid system problems.

More about it can be found here...

I am in overdrive to deal with this problem and hope to have it resolved today.

Please accept my apologies and do not open any e-mail from me which has a file attachment for a day or two.

Thanks,
 
Andy,

Sh!t happens - I hope it does not take you too long to be back up and running.

Take care,

Ed
 
Andy,

We are here for you.

I could come up there, Craig and I could go to the Bada-Bing and look for a couple of Computer Ex-Perts. I know we will look real good for you.:D

Maybe take in a Diner or Two....Just trying to help.

My firewall stopped the virus from spreading from my machine and I called a couple of folks to check. Let me know what I can do. Maybe test out a few hawks for you....:)

I knew something was wrong when the e-mail didn't say "Love you Brother".

Melvin
