Very True JR, Very True.

Talking of snow - We're expecting a very big delivery here in the UK
tomorow... It's getting Brrrrr Freezing! It's come about a month or so
early.

Cue the emails telling me how hot it is where you are :-)

Yeah, there's a virtual "snow storm" of these virus email out with different
approaches and subject lines. Two of them that came in this morning:

"hey its me, my old address don't work at time. i don't know why?!
in the last days ive got some mails. i' think thaz your mails but im not
sure!
plz read and check"

... with an attachment for you to read. Yeah, right...

and:

"View Paris Hilton & Nicole Richie video clips , pictures & more ;)
Download is free until Jan, 2006!"

... why anyone thinks that come-on would entice most people to click on the
attachment ,I don't know...

The old rules still apply:

1) NEVER open any email attachment unless you know FOR SURE what it is. If
you want to send an attachment to someone, send them a regular email first,
telling them what you want to do and asking permission to do it -- so they
know to expect it and that it really is from you.

2) NEVER click on a link in a email that requests you to enter your User
Name or Password unless you are expecting the message -- like you've just
registered with a new website or forum or whatever. Otherwise -- even if the
email looks genuine -- just manually go to the site without using the link
in the email and do whatever it is they were asking you do to in the email.

Too bad we have to deal with all this shuck and jive, but there it is.

  I got about 8 of them this morning. Deleted them all. I often wonder how
these people that create this junk have so much time on their hands.
