if people still open those email attachments, something really is wrong with them. I almost hope the virus hits them.

Thanks for the info Dukat, it looks as though you mean well :)

Most thesedays should be aware of Firewall / Virus checker needs, but there are still those that get caught out.

Unfortunately, there is a flip side of the coin, where many get spammed about a Virus that does not exist, which only causes more traffic etc ...

I just hope in this day and age all are aware of the need for firewalls / virus checkers and use such

Ha, for a laugh I opened all those e-mails that seem to be personally addressed, you know , the ones that say
'hi-we met last night, or 'you've left your jacket/ex-girlfriend trying to get in touch..etc.

Every last one of them was selling Viagra:eek:

omg my pc is dead and I can't use it or post on BW or anything or...


Oh no hang on it's just another panic about fuck all that can't get past any firewall that's sensible enough not to download any strange .exe's :(

How boring...


Nice weather tho, not too hot or too cold.

only idiots and retards open attachments they are not expecting, thus i have no sympathy for anyone infected.
