Hi Dean, I've already sent a message to Irene to tell her she has the virus. I got one too but Norton disabled it. Besides that I use Netscape so am protected anyway. Apparently this one doesn't need the attachment to be opened so everyone with Outlook or Express should have up to date virus protection or they will likely get infected.
