Maybe instead of everyone slamming people for trying to help us out, you
could point them in the right direction so they can check these things out
for themselves. This is the first time that I have heard of the "Symantec"
page to check for Hoax Viruses. All I ever see is people telling the
originator that it is a hoax and never informing anyone on how to go about
verifying it. With all the technology I'm sure that it will be just a
matter of time before you WILL be able to get a virus via E-mail.
