Some viruses replicate by using the address book of the host computer and

sending out e mails to everyone on it, unbeknownest to the computer owner. I

rarely to never open any attachments of the .exe type even if I know the

sender.

 

Especially any with names like sexyfun :-) Unregulated sex life invariably has

a reaction :-)

 

I didn't get it at all, but do have up to date virus software. My program

automatically checks once a day while I am on the internet to see if any

updates are available.

Hmmm, and you are on the cow conference right? Did anyone else on the cow

conference get that text?

Dear Samba Prabhu:

 

Please accept my humble obeisances. All glories to Srila Prabhupada.

 

Hare Krsna. I also received that email, however, the attachment seemed to

have been intercepted by my firewall and upon seeing the email itself, I

immediately deleted it. It appears to me that my firewall found something

objectionable in the attachment and stopped it from being downloaded. I had

the firewall set so as not to alert me when it takes such actions and so I

don't know precisely what it did or why. I can only guess that a potential

virus was detected and so the attachment was rejected. This email certainly

had all the earmarks of a virus. You had better update your antivirus

software and run a thorough scan.

 

I hope this meets you and your PC in good health and I beg to remain,

 

Your servant,

Taraka dasa

I never open attachments from people I don't know. I just deleted it.

 

(Sometimes I don't even open greeting cards from people I do know. Viruses are

a real drag.)

 

your servant,

I did in fact receive receive it. As I did not recognize the sender, I deleted

it without opening the attachment.

I'm doing that, thanks.

 

Actually I do have virus protection software, but had not updated it for a

while. I'm doing that now! I also made a backup.

 

Thanks for your help.

I also got this, but didn't notice the sender. I was opening a series of

Prabhupada quotes and then this came up. At first I thought it was a joke

from someone I know. But when I saw "sexyfun", I thought it was a little too

weird for him. The message was written by someone who is not very fluent in

english. Nothing happened though. I notice no differences. ???...
