but wanted the info available since this chipper-based email could ruin a few days for people. Being it is being masked within what appears to be "a safe Microsoft" info page... I didn't want anyone to get infected if their virus programs didn't pick it up.

I have seen this warning before - same virus... but unfortunately Art Q. HAS NOT been sucessful in cleaning, nor safeguarding his system... thus many of us are at risk for infection.

I simply can not say enough for Norton... I receive 3-5 virus warnings a month... all except ONE sender have been through "chip related" sources in one form or another.
