Re: Virus



Just a short note for all Alfisti using Windows, for anyone else as well ;-)
Many virusses use / used open back doors in the various Windows versions.
As far as I know Microsoft is very keen on closing these open doors as soon as
they are aware of such a case and immediately issue an up-date to close the
door.
It is your own responsability to check the windows update site for these
security up-dates.
That's one of the reasons the update option is in your start menu!
In combination with a good virus scanner you don't have to fear any
"attacks".
And......... NEVER open .exe attachments you haven't asked for!!!
In other words, just keep up those gloves and protect yourself.
