Please move this message to Computer Technical Help after it receives 'enough' views...
================================================== ====

For those of you who haven't recently updated your virus protection definitions, please do so.

My systems stay very clean and in general, stay very up-to-date.

Over the past 36 hours, I have received no fewer then 80 emails which have been trapped/deleted by either Yahoo! mail or McAfee.

Please take this opportunity to update your virus definitions.

For those of you without protection, a 30-day free evaluation copy of McAfee can be located here .

Your resident self-appointed SOB thanks you in advance.

on a side note, the people who create these viuruses should be killed.

Using McAfee for 30 days is like using the rythm method of contraception.

Use AVG for free instead, no time limit.

Good stuff, Thanks.

I'm so use to having corporate licenses for this stuff that I haven't research the free alternatives in quiet a while.
