With all this talk of viruses, I downloaded the latest McAfee today, and

Al,
pic4u.exe was on the TV news the other night. It comes as an
attachment on your e-mail. You click on it and absolutely nothing
happens. They then changed the PC's clock to 11:59:30, 12/31/1999
and we watched. At midnight the screen went black and the person
said "We can tell you from experience that the disk drive in this
machine is now empty. pic4u.exe is a very nasty virus."
Merry Christmas to all, and a Thousand More.

IFS & Merry Christmas

We hear that the AS/400 has never had a virus. Is this true
for the IFS?
IMHO, the AS/400 natively is virus proof. It is clearly possible
for the IFS to be a carrier of a virus.
Is there some thing that prevents the IFS from being
trashed by pic4u.exe for instance?
Booth, I don't know what this program is.
Merry Christmas to all, and a have a Happy (Uneventful) New
Years.
