This is not one of those hoaxes. There is a new nasty going around called GONER and our business was seriously hit yesterday afternoon at 17:30. If you get any emails where the subject is 'Hi' then immediately delete them. If you run M$ Lookout or Lookout Express, make sure you turn your preview pane off as this is enough to infect you.
The virus was discovered in the wild yesterday afternoon, our email scanner was being updated as soon as the new data file was made available and we got 'hit' slap bang in the middle of the update - how's that for bad timing ? We are all sorted out now, but our NT guys had a long evening :o( I have a task on my list to investigate Linux as an alternative desktop system for the business - more ammo for me :o) Norman. ------------------------------------- Norman Dunbar Database/Unix administrator Lynx Financial Systems Ltd. mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Tel: 0113 289 6265 Fax: 0113 289 3146 URL: http://www.Lynx-FS.com ------------------------------------- This email is intended only for the use of the addressees named above and may be confidential or legally privileged.
