The virus laden message was ostensibly from Al Dalton. It was caught and
isolated by Norton 2002. The message was never opened and the virus
probably didn't do any harm as further scans show no virus in my machine. I
scan MY messages BEFORE they go out and OTHERS' messages AS they come in. I
have been amazed this week that there have been about 6 different viruses
on various emails, all caught by Norton.
