First things first. First of all,tell us what Mac, what version of the OS you're using. I can state that the email message in your sister's email box almost certainly (99.9999%) did NOT come from your computer...spam just doesn't work that way these days. The From: line is almost certainly forged. Second the date being wrong is more likely due to a dead PRAM battery, and your normal wireless network wasn't enabled for some reason? There is no dialog I can think of you could get that would ask abot 'allowing or denying' incoming networks. Tell us *exactly* what the error says. Finally, the odds are enormously *against* you having a virus on your mac. -- Bruce Johnson University of Arizona College of Pharmacy Information Technology Group Institutions do not have opinions, merely customs -- You received this message because you are a member of the iMac Group, a group for those using Apple iMacs and eMacs.
