My server said that they have put a virus check on their end and I
have not had any of the virusses that you have mentioned. I think
that it must be working to stop them getting through to me at all.
I am with a local server Perhaps others can ask their servers
to do the same.

[ozmidwifery] virus alert - DO NOT OPEN "BIRTH STORY?"
Yes - do not open "birth story?" - I did not send it. You
will notice the attachment symbol - these shouldn't be opened in
any case. My virus softwear picked up a few infected files yesterday
and I have disposed of them appropriately.

Apparently the bugbear worm uses the
address book of an infected computer to send itself out, so the
attachment will look as if it's come from person A, when it has really
sent out from person B. E.g. B has the email address of A in its
address book. Bugbear sends out emails, with the worm attached, to
all people in B's address book, as if sent from A (rather than B).
So Denise, you may not have had the worm in the first
place.
Clear? Probably as mud :-)
