Eudora is not a solution. It may or may not forward the infected email to others in your address book, but you will suffer from the virus. It will overwrite .exe files running in place of them, making your machine slower and slower. I have customers that use it because they were not satified with IE or Outlook. I have removed the Klez from all of their machines that got email, and installed an antivirus to run and check all new and changed files. Save some money, buy an anti-virus. In the long run it's cheaper that way. You won't have to pay someone to remove the virus, won't have to reinstall programs and will know you are not spreading the viruses. I use Panda Software's Titanium. Updates whenever there is an internet connection. Also updates daily. http://www.pandasoftware.com/products/titanium/ No I don't work for them, I am just a satisfied customer. Tacky Techie Tiki Bar [ Edited by: Turbogod on 2003-02-19 10:21 ]
