Uh oh.

Our e-mail server just got taken offline to prevent the spread of a virus.

If you see e-mails about Kournikova, delete them. do not open them. do not forward them. Symantec has no patch yet.

Our administrator never shuts us down. This one must be big.

It must be big. Gordon emailed me after lunch from his house. He had the Anna Kournikova email waiting for him in his mailbox, and he says it mailed itself to everyone on his address list.

You'd better call home and tell the kids.

This one is a biggie. I know several large companies that have taken their external mail servers off line to deal with it. We've had it going through ours here as well.

I think I received it 45 times in a 10 minute period. Lovely!

We stay on top of things here. Occasionally someone will get a blank e-mail - where the virus had been stripped. There has only been one virus that bothered anyone, that I can recall, and it didn't do any real damage because it was written for Microsoft products - we use Lotus.

good idea

I called and warned Heather. Mike is working on the tech crew at his old school. I'll get home before he does. Guess I'd better warn my mom too.
