Hello Stampers.
Just a note to let you know that there has been a new virus warning issued just now on the radio here. It is another email attachment virus and the subject line refers to "Home page" or something like that. Delete it without opening it if you ever receive it.

    Too late. Peter May's computer is infected and sending out the virus to the
    list. Norton gave me this message:

    This file: "homepage.HTML.vbs" was infected with: "VBS.VBSWG2.X@mm" virus.

    I got lucky and saw the viusal basic ending.

    I also e-mailed the list owner and asked to have
    the two posts removed.

    Of course, the last 6 hours may reek havoc with some.

    I have had the "Snowball" virus enter my email system,
    Please do not open any attachments from me unless you are expecting them.

    Apologies..
