Yeah too right - I've been the target of a bit of a mini campaign recently, with average 20 viruses caught by Norton per day for the last 4 or 5 days. Tailing off now, but am I ever glad I kept Norton up to date?!

As every one is probably aware there is a lot of viruses knocking about at the moment.My wife seems to be the target of a campaign at the moment,she is recieving upto 30 viruses a day.Today one got through her virus detector but was caught by Norton.It was titled delivery failure & gave a link to windows media player.
It's scary that the people sending her this stuff must have got her addresses off lists to which she is a member.They are even coming in with my address as the originator.She is getting mail with delivery failure coming in from various companies whos anti virus system catch the virus & send her a delivery report.
My paranoia has gone into overload with me updating my anti virus at least twice a day & finding updates almost every time.
So it's probably a good thing to keep your anti virus & spyware upto date.
A dose of healthy paranoia is probably a good thing too?
Regards,
Mik
