Subject: [analog-help] Real virus alert
Sorry for the off topic, but THIS IS NOT A HOAX.
A few hours ago I receive a message from Italsempione, an international
shipper, telling (in Spanish and English)
> We will be glad if you verify your Operative System(s) before
> Year 2000 to avoid problems with your Internet Connections.
> If you are a Windows 95 / 98 user, you can check your system
> using the Fix2001 application that is attached to this E-Mail
> or downloading it from Microsoft (C) WEB Site:
> HTTP://WWW.MICROSOFT.COM
> If you are using another Operative System, please don't wait
> until Year 2000, ask your OS Technical Support.
The subject is "Internet problem year 2000."
The attachment is Fix2001.exe
I don't know who can have contacts with Italsempione shipping company, but
in next days it's better to fax them rather then to use e-mail ;-)
I read my mail with Eudora so I've no problems, but Out-Luck users must be
more careful and disable any automatic launch of attachments.
Good luck!
Marco Bernardini
happy Eudora user
