No Disc Posted April 1, 2004 Share Posted April 1, 2004 All of the Macintosh software is more expensive than the PC counterpart. Of couse, being a Mac users means we can skip purchasing the Anitivirus software because we don't need it. I got that Klipsch email virus sent to me... I just giggled. - tb ---------------- On 4/1/2004 2:05:07 PM fini wrote: (Sorry to hear of your problem!

Daddy Dee Posted April 2, 2004 Share Posted April 2, 2004 Here's what I've observed about viruses and worms lately. I've gotten notices from people I've never heard of that tell me I've sent them an e-mail with a virus. What has actually happened is that someone's pc with my name in their address book has been infected and their Outlook has gone to work as a zombie sending out e-mails to all manner of folks with bogus return addresses. From my last few months of observation, I think this is a more likely scenario than getting a virus from a corporate pc that is most likely protected by Norton or other program. This scenario seems to have become quite common as a means of infection. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
