Default New Virus?

Does anybody know if there is a new Virus out?  I just got about 40 e-mail's from a guy with an @yahoo address.  I don't think they allow spamming and while I was deleting tthose I got another 20.  Doesn't really sound like spamming but more like a mass mailing virus.  And Idea's guy's?

Wanna keep up to date with the latest and greatest info on virusus?

Check out my site. http://www.stayton.net at the bottom is an up to date map of the top 10. Clicking on the virus will give you a definition of it and how to remove it etc.

This is provided free and you even put this on your own site. Pretty cool beans.

I like that map that lists the most recent viruses on your webpage wizbones!  It was just the thing I was looking for about three weeks ago.  Now I know where to go.  Thanks for that great tip!!!

My brother called me and said to delete any email from him because of a new virus. He said it went into all his secured information and emailed his banks and clients and then hit everyone in his address book and email list, etc. He feared this virus so much he has changed all his bank accounts, charge cards, phone numbers, and notified all his clients. He doesn't know the name of the virus. It sounds pretty nasty.

Well, here is one that eats up your anti virus program, comes in emails. These days it is getting harder to tell the difference between virii, trojans, worms, adware, spyware, or whatever. May want to check this out.

While we are on the subject, don't overlook this one if you are using Lime Wire and Grokster, you may have to deal with it.
