You've got a virus! There's always `one degree of separation between 
convenience and catastrophe' with Microsoft software.

Please consider switching to Linux, which only has 4 current viruses out of 
30,000 variants in 4,000 `families', and every single one of those 4 requires 
you to do something silly if it's to work.

At the very least, please use a less-virus-prone mail client like the free 
(and Free) Mozilla, from http://www.mozilla.org/; ditto a less-virus-prone 
Office suite like OpenOffice.org (http://www.openoffice.org/). Both packages 
(and many others) run on both Windows and Linux, some also run on Macintosh.

One day, your Microsoft software's going to send out something *important* 
without you knowing about it. Act now to prevent that.
