A warning to list members... I've been getting hundreds of emails a day the past few days- all infected with the Sobig virus. They are coming from strangers, from folks at the Metro Council and several list members, including the list administrator this a.m., so be careful! They have enticing subject lines like Re: your application, Thanks, Wicked screensaver, My Details, Approved, etc. The text always says: Please see the attached file for details. DON'T OPEN THE ATTACHMENT!
I've also been getting outside attacks about every 10-15 minutes over the past five days or so-- someone, somewhere attempting to gain access to my computer. My firewall has saved me from these attempted intrusions and whatever mischief they contain. Update your antiviral software regularly and if you have a broadband connection, be sure you have a good firewall setup at an appropriate security level!! Michael Hohmann Linden Hills TEMPORARY REMINDER: 1. Don't feed the troll! Ignore obvious flame-bait. 2. If you don't like what's being discussed here, don't complain - change the subject (Mpls-specific, of course.) ________________________________ Minneapolis Issues Forum - A City-focused Civic Discussion - Mn E-Democracy Post messages to: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Subscribe, Un-subscribe, etc. at: http://e-democracy.org/mpls
