Jeff and Nancy -

There was a thread or some mention of the evils of Klez, which  is quite 
different from other forms of virus and much more insidious.
It was explained quite well but a bit over my head at the time.
Not much can be done in the end except to change your e-mail address.
It doesn't corrupt your system either - it just harvests e-mails and 
does its evil thing, which can be far more annoying then a corrupted 
system/HD.

I've changed my address once and it stopped.
Made another change when I switched to Verizon and still haven't 
received any.

When these Klez related mails come, they're not Spams but mysterious 
messages that don't make any sense from people's address you don't 
recognize.

Yes, it usually infiltrates Outlook Express that's in a PC, or at least 
the last time I heard.
