Dear colleagues,
Yesterday, I was surfing on tutorial websites and a
virus downloaded automatically on my computer. Luckily
it couldn't do any further harm because I have a
firewall installed (ZoneAlarm, freeware - download at
www.zonelabs.com)
Search your computer for filenames starting with
'MEP', I had a couple of them with extension .EXE and
.TMP, located under c:\windows\system
If you do find those, you might have the new virus on
your computer. Download McAfee to clean it. There is a
brand new Virus Datafile online since yesterday on
www.nai.com
Take care!
