Yea...I'm probably acarrier of it, dont open any attachments from this email
addy or gmconner@juno.com. I got an email from a fellow dak owner last
night that I have been talking to on a message board about his engine combo.
I then received the my results email and foolishly opened the attachment
in my juno accout. By this morning I had 19 returned emails that the virus
had sent out. Not only that but it took addys from my juno account and
mailed them the virus from my hotmail account. I'm at work right now, but
gonna have to do something about it when I get home. What are my choises?
Do I need to reformat the whole hard drive and start over or is there a
utility to kill this virus?
