The offending computer has sent the Badtrans virus to me about eight times in the last couple of days. The offending computer is also sending the same virus to many others on my mailing list. We have already sent to Oscar Diaz some messages advising him of the problem, but your hapless subscriber apparently remains in ignorance concerning the problem with his computer. My machine did not become infected because I do not use MicroSoft Windows, being an operating system highly notorious for its vulnerability to email viruses. I use DOS, and so far I have found my operating system incapable of running any of the various email viruses that are going around and infecting so many others who have so stubbornly declined to follow the current popular trend of upgrading their Windows operating systems to DOS or Linux or to some other well designed system having good security features. It is a very annoying nuisance to me to be continually receiving these email viruses from Oscar Diaz, or from anyone else, although none of these viruses are capable of infecting my machine even if I deliberately try to run them. Please contact Oscar Diaz and tell him to disinfect his machine immediately. It would be very helpful to all of your subscribers if you would advise them to get rid of Windows too. A good ISP would strongly suggest to all of its users that they use a good operating system. BTW, you have my permission to forward this message to Oscar Diaz. Thanks in advance, and have a good day.
