... in response to virus why on this list?, posted by jim c on Dec 1, 2001I don't think it has anything to do with this list. I'm getting many e-mail messages every day with viruses right now in all my e-mail accounts. New ones come out and spread like wildfire until people start updating their virus checking software (or installing it for the first time).
One thing you can do to alliviate the problem (besides updating your virus definitions file for your virus checker) is to not use Outlook Express or Eudora e-mail programs. Most viruses target those (especially Outlook Express) because they are the most common.
