Gents,

There is a nasty little bug poping it's ugly head all over the place. I have recently been infected with the Spyware Sheriff and the Antispylab "virus". The exact prob can be seen at:

I am batteling this bug right now. If you've received a personal email from me, you may want to make sure I didn't pass this on. Also see:

I've yet to do these two fixes; however will attempt them when I get home tonight.

McAfee 7.0 and PCcillin 12 did not catch these. My wife may be the culprit in downloading a fee online version of Wheel of Fortune and, some free smilies.

I now use Avast, and a combination of Spybot and Adaware; both find it but cannot successfully delete it. THe two fixes in the above post say to use ewido and Smitfraudfix; which I will try.

These are NASTY! If I've passed them along, I am deeply sorry! This problem started last night, so hopefully I havn't had time to pass them.

Thanks all,
