Someone called ALLAN just emailed me but it was rejected as having incurable virus.
Whoever you are, please check your equipment, it's a bit poorly.

Re: Virus Alert
There is a virus going about that attacks a PC then sends itself to others not as the person on the PC and their email but instead as someone from their address book.
So, if I had the virus it would not send from me but instead from an address (say one of our customers) in our address book. The other people in the address book get a copy of the message. So it would appear that someone you don't know has mailed you a virus but in fact it came from someone who has you in their address book.
The best bet is to keep Norton or some other virus scanner on your PC at all times. Keep the signature files up to date as well.
I know... could just be preaching to the choir here though!!
