This may stop the viruses spreading to list members.
To avoid spreading computer viruses, create a contact in your email address
book with the name
!0000
with no email address in the details.
This contact will then show up as your first contact.
If a virus attempts to do a "send all" on your contact list, your PC will
put up an error message saying that:
"The Message could not be sent. One or more recipients do not have an e-mail
address. Please check your Address Book and make sure all the recipients
have a valid e-mail address."
You click on OK and the offending (virus) message would not have been sent
to anyone. Of course no changes have been made to your original contacts
list.
The offending (virus) message may then be automatically stored in your
"Drafts" or "Outbox" folder. Go in there and delete the offending message.
Problem is solved and virus is not spread.
Try this and pass on to your email contacts.
