[TheForge] More virus stuff

I received a message from Bruce Freeman yesterday saying that I sent him an
infected message. At this point I'm pretty sure it is a mistake. For a
month now my ISP has been intercepting 2 or 3 messages a day infected with
the NetSky virus. I don't recognize the senders on the messages except for
the time it said that I sent it to myself. I use AVG which I keep up to
date. My ISP uses Macafee. When the first notice came in I downloaded and
ran the Norton /NetSky clean program and went out to HouseCall and scanned
my systrem. I think I'm protected and just ignore the notices now.
Hopefully now that more and more of the ISPs are starting to screen mail,
the virus producers will run out of safe havens to operate from.
