Most of our computers 300 or so country wide. Plus problems from head office in the good ole US of A . Funny I was one of the only ones who saw the funny side. Probably because I went to see Terminator 3 Y'day. Skynet is coming.:D

if u have decent virus checkers (VET) then u should be right. have never once copped a virus (maybe that's caus i have written a few and know how they work)
i actually got suspended last year from school for using the school network to distribute a virus. b4 you go and call me an annoying f*&king so and so, it was an informative virus. all it was programmed to do was when ppl opened the jpeg, it sent me theri location (country code), and redirected itself to ONE PERSON ONLY in their address book.
it wasn't malicious and didn't harm anything. it isn't illegal, but the school saw it as a 'security breach' of their network and took approiate action

Yeah, but only once..(that was enough)

My mate got it 4 times... and that was just TODAY!

They've been talking about it at work but not been touched:sandrine

I've got Norton's here and no problems, touch wood

How was the black out in the states today? It must have freaked people out majorly until they got news of the cause

Maybe it wasn't a lightening strike at the Niagra power plant but the worm?
