Morning all,

the new goner virus is out as of yesterday. It sends an email with 'Hi' as the subject and will infect you if you open the attached goner.scr screen saver (!) OR if you have the preview pane open in Outlook/Outlook Express.

We got hit last night just as we were uploading the latest dat file - out NT bods were here all night and had to eat Pizza and drink Coke to get them through the carnage.

We are now clean !

Regards, and be careful,

Norman.
