virus Warning: Very Important, Please read

Recently I have been receiving a lot of virus emails. The email will have an attached zip file with a virus called "Virus W32.Klez.H@mm" The virus will spread itself automatically by going to your address book and send out the virus emails to those people on your address book. I have received several ones from people that I don't think will send me a virus email such as brabrx7.com and marx7.com. For more info on this virus, please go to

http://securityresponse.symantec.com...klez.h@mm.html

A side note. I do not send any emails with attachment. I always upload everything to my website. If you have received any mail marked rotary extreme or some sort with an attachment, do not download it. I think some of my customers' computers might have been infected because I received virus emails from them.

Some virus email will even say the attachement is a fix for the virus. You can set up a hotmail or yahoo email account and their server will scan the virus for you automatically. So forward all your emails with an attachment to yahoo email account or hotmail account and open it from there. Hopefully their virus scan tool is always updated though.

Im going to bump this even though its been talked about, but obviously its still out there..

I have got some too in the past , from various companies(SO THEY WERE NAMED).. Im sure just some little ***** at home is making these names for them. YES DON NOT OPEN THEM, wow it cant be cleaned and its a pain in the *** to get it off your computer.... Plus it mutiplys about x10 every 30 mins. It can distroy all your files.

Updated your virus scanners and you should be good to go...

GOOD LUCK, PEACE OUT
