Thanks very much Paul
For your warning, AND IT IS GOOD TO SEE YOU HAVE USING GREEN WITH A HTML
TYPE EMAIL.
For one reason or another I never saw that Email with that virus, I must of
deleted off the server because the file size was too big.
I would like to set my "do not download if more than [10k] " (email rule)
but there seems to be a lot of HTML email sent that multiples the size by
about 2.5, this would stop a lot of virus coming on to your computer, then
you can download a free program called, MailWasher 1.32.9,
(mailwasher1329.exe 1.6Meg in file size.) MailWasher is a powerful email
checker. from http://www.mailwasher.net/
and because of the HTML Email makes it hard to set the limit at 10K which is
plenty big enough for any standard quarry to the group.
Sorry if my Email upsets you, but I just had my whole weekend wrecked
because a friend got a virus and he asked me to help him, getting rid of the
virus was easy reinstalling his computer was the time consuming part.
So now I have a three point plan to stop virus,
(1) first when I check my Email I check with a program called "mailwasher"
to see details on the Email before I download anything. and can delete from
the internet provider, so a email virus never see my computer.
(2) I have set my mail rules "don't download if the Email size is bigger
than 10K"
then I had to increase that to 18K. This method has all ready stopped
download Email attachments that the Email group I am in said had a virus to
it, before I installed "mailwasher".
(3) You guest it, I keep my anti virus program up to date, almost checking
it every day.
From Eric
