BTW, Hewlett Packard, where I work, sent a message to all HP workers, warning about mails possibly infected by Nimda, and that's what they are supposed to look like :

SUBJECT LINE: Subject line can be any random subject
MESSAGE BODY: Blank
ATTACHMENTS: File name ‘readme.xxx’, with one of the following extensions,
.exe, .com, .eml, or .wav.

Just a warning.

I think I got it from the IW, because after cleaning everything up I retried the IW, and Norton immediately started throwing warnings at me. I suggest anyone who has tried to access the IW in the past day have a good check.
I feel sorry for all the network people clearing this up, it took me 3 hours to get rid of it from 1 PC (luckily our home network wasn't connected up at the time). Somehow I managed to get 600+ infected files, which Norton AV to deleted, but Norton Utilities kindly put them in it's recovery file. Next time I scan I still have 600+ infected files - argggghhhhh.

Thank you so very much, Ziroc !

Btw: while I am still a poor university student, fortunately my financial plight has lessened somewhat as of late and I would like to take advantage of this rare occurence - won't last for long !

- to finally make my own small monetary contribution to the board. I am posting this here because I want to know your advice about how to best get the money to Dan.

Thanks in advance for your input !
