If you get an email with an attachment like .PIF, .SCR or .EXE from my or anyone else, it may be the MTX virus. If you have any of these files in your windows dir: win32.dll mtx_.exe ie_pack.exe or in system dir under that: wsock32.mtx don't reboot your computer. Get some virus scanning help and fix it before it gets worse. The win32.dll by itself may be ok. I got an email from UK (virus originated in Germany I believe) that had a virus in it and foolishly dicked around with it and managed to infect my computer. More info here and at the usual virus sites: http://www.skidmore.edu/help/virus/mtx.html I'm still trying to get rid of it, it's pesky. -- ,-/- __ _ _ $Bill Luebkert ICQ=14439852 (_/ / ) // // DBE Collectibles http://www.wgn.net/~dbe/ / ) /--< o // // Mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] http://dbecoll.webjump.com/ -/-' /___/_<_</_</_ http://www.freeyellow.com/members/dbecoll/ _______________________________________________ Perl-Win32-Web mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://listserv.ActiveState.com/mailman/listinfo/perl-win32-web
