Happy Valentine's Day

A little early. Just wanted to warn anyone who might actually stop by to not open Valentine card e-mails from anyone you don't know. The Storm Worm virus uses an embedded link to install itself and make your computer part of a botnet. A single user then has access to all the machines in the botnet.

Actually whenever you receive an e-card from anyone you don't know- just delete it.

An article about this is at http://www.emergencyemail.org/newsemergency/anmviewer.asp?a=283&z=1.

I subscribe to emergencymail.org, so it's legitimate. I mostly get weather warnings from them. It does have ads which may or may not be helpful.

Love,
Naomi for the Colliers
