Re: FW: Install these corrective update from MS Corp. _ IT IS A VIRUS - AVOID IT - REPORT IT



I always read and post usenet articles on the Web (via Google or
news.interbulletin.com or dbforums or newsone.net) without any
specific Usenet Software or Server Access requirements and never get
near any attachments so wasn't aware that a virus could be spread
through UseNet. Is this a rare event? Maybe I'm naive - just like my
ex-girlfriend said I was. I don't fully understand how UseNet is
served but I'd have thought any server hosting UseNet should have top
notch AV?

Mike.
