RE: [Thinkpad] RE: Another virus disaster, last paragraph of virus content.

Um the problem with most of us isn't that we have viruses, or that we
use MS software... the problem is that all or most of us, at one point
or another in our lifetimes, posted something on a newsgroup without
altering our email addresses... it doesn't matter what you use to read
your mail once these losers have your address... you will get slammed
with this stuff... I have friends who never use outlook and they
continue to get slammed with this stuff... I got off of Outlook myself
over this past weekend and it didn't make any difference in the number
of annoying mails that arrive several times a minute...

Hey! Not fair! As a NON-MS user I have to wade
through the "Woe is me, I got a virus" messages
repeatedly.
