these viruses are currently only affecting:

1) attachments - so never down load without knowing for sure. I knew someone who got a virus allegedly from their Mother's account --- he said "if you cant trust your mother, you can you trust?"
2) folks who use Microsoft's mail reader - outlook express

if you don't open attachments (particularly without checking to see the attachment's format) or don't use outlook express -- you should be fine ((for the time being))

and buy a virus detector - and keep it updated

> and buy a virus detector - and keep it updated

I'll second that. And don't just keep it updated: be paranoid about
updating it. New viruses appear almost every day, and it is the viruses
that your virus detector doesn't recognize that are going to infect
your machine.

In addition, installing a firewall, such as zone alarm, might be a good
idea, to prevent worms, such as Opaserv, from entering your machine.
(I've seen this virus being caught by a virus detector as soon as the
machine was connected to the internet, so this is no exaggeration!)

Thank you very much for those words, my friend! they warm all the way down
:-)

Gosh, thanks again.

I'm starting to wonder if I should make translations into english of those
prefaces and post them here, for your enjoyment, if they are indeed good.
But that will be in due time. I do have just a bit of that the next days,
but not mcuh. not enough.

Hi all!
I am very sorry if Apostolis was in any way hurt by my suspiciousness. But I was only saying what I believed Thomas Lauritsen told us between the lines in his posting about this. Anyway, I formed it as a question ? I was *never* blaming my friend Apostolis for causing anything deliberately. I hope you understand that receiving 2-4 viruses from the same place every day does really irritate me. Thomas did tell us where it comes from, so what more could I do? So those of you who are experts on this, please continue your investigation so that this mess can be stopped as soon as possible.
Sigvald :-)

Worldlingo have improved a little bit, I can see, but not perfect still.
You can translate whole article little by little by cut and paste method.

hijzelf? = himself? heldhaftig?

I just read the other day an old Mickey Mouse story where this phrase
was.

Everything from sloop to knots.

I should be some kind of pun I understand from the context but I don't
get it. Can someone explain this for me ?

a pun yes: sloop and knots are nautical terms
the usual phrase is "soup to nuts" -- meaning we have everything
