Thought I had better post this as a matter of urgency.

Virus notification as at 09.00am August 16th 2003

Anyone whose running Windows NT, Windows 2000 and Windows XP operating systems, please check you are running a Firewall. As this virus spreads from computer to computer.

Microsoft have a patch for this at:-

www.microsoft.com/security/incident/blast.asp

My own Yahoo e-mail was sent a virus over a period of 5 days, but thankfully that was sorted.

I recommend that you back up any important work, as a precaution.

I cannot emphasise strongly enough if you receive an e mail like I did with an unfamiliar name, address anything at all, that you don't recognise, DELETE IT!! Immediately!!!
