[APD] RE: Viruses and worms
One thing that I've found to eliminate the sharing of viruses, etc. w. ppl in
my Outlook (Express) Adress Book is to create a contact that consists of four
zeros (0000). I don't remember who told this to me, but the premis was that
the virus searches your Adress Book until it doesn't find any; and, because
0000 would be first, the virus thinks ther aren't any addresses.
Give it a try - I've never had problems with it.
YMMV

>>Some one that has the APD email address in their address book is
infected with one or more viruses and/or worms. This IMHO is
inexcusable. Running a computer without up to date anti-virus software is
akin to sky diving without a parachute or like removing the front door to
your house and piling your valuables right inside the door.<<
Tell me about it... I am getting over 600 SPAM emails a DAY now. About half
is from peoples infected computers that has me in their address book, and
the other half is porn and well...male enhancements if you know what I mean!
