Re: For Ellen Gilmartin/virus

Good Morning :

You were absolutely correct in NOT downloading any attachment that

comes to you or anyone supposedly sent by me. I haven't sent any

attachments to anyone. This is a VIRUS!

It really did a job on my computer...........I think I may have to

purchase a new computer. I can get into my email, but everything

else is frozen. I am posting now from my daughter's home.

Please, please - to any member that may have been on my *individual*

email address book....again, DO NOT OPEN any attachments from me.

They are not from me.

Sorry about this everyone - I feel just awful about this -

Thanks Willem:

I was looking for a good excuse to replace my old computer anyway.

My daughter and I have decided to get my old one up and running; give

it to my grandson and I get a new one.

You know...I'm not that concerned about the inconvenience on my side

as I am for all the people that I may have infected and all the

people they may have infected and so on and so on and so on! This is

mind boggling to me!

Thanks again - and stay well.

Ellen, I think having your hard disk erased and the software

reinstalled should be sufficient. Or see if one of the antivirus

programs can salvage it, if you can get one installed.
