BUY NORTON ANTIVIRUS!

It is worth every penny, automatically downloads new updates scans everything incoming and outgoing.

Just curious what precautions you'd taken? Norton? Firewall? What?

Norton rules!

The funniest shit is that while I was reading this message thread norton actually poped a small yellow window and told me that all my virus definitions were now up to date. Gotta love auto update.

Yeah, Norton Antivirus rocks ! In addition to that, I'd say to add a firewall too... I use Zone Alarm Pro, it has pop-ups disabled function and much more.

Just my

if you really want your data back, you could go to download.com and do a search on GetDataBack. It retrieved all my data when a virus wiped all the partitions on my hardrive.

You know what's fucked up... I had Norton on, Zone Alarm Pro on, & I have a firewall on my wireless router. How the Weird32 got into my files and started replicating I will never know. I stopped it by running an Housecall Online Virus Check.

If you want to avoid Viruses, do not use a Microsoft email program. Really.
http://www.eudora.com

If you really want to avoid them, do not use a Microsoft operating system. Works like a charm.
http://www.apple.com

If you really, really don't want to get viruses, don't use Office.

That covers 99.99% of viruses. Probably more.
