Sorry, folks for the array of messages that came through this morning.
 
Somehow, I ended up with that virus.  Thought my Norton was up to date.  It didn't catch it.
I actually copied that file to diskette and scanned it before opening it.
 
A lesson in updating on a regular basis.  I usually update once a week.  Now I think I'm going to check daily for updates.  Anyway, my apologies.
 
That virus BTW sends messages containing various attachment files that start the virus running through your email.  It sends the virus to all the email that has not been opened.  We have had so many storms here since Friday, I shut down and unplugged.  When I started up this morning, the virus started running.
 
For what it is worth, I would never send an attachment to the list.  You ever see one from me - delete the message. 
 
My apologies. 
Del Williams
