Default Virus warning possibly targeting TIBB e-mail addresses

Earlier this evening my Norton Anti-Virus intercepted safely a virus that came on the e-mail address I use for this forum.

The virus was the W32.Klez.H@mm virus.


Please can you all update all anti virus software and be careful of your e-mail

Mark & Lee can you check your systems

Because of what I do for a living I check all my pc's regularly with an up to date virus checker.

I haven't had any problems for ages so I'm sure it's not me. Also Mark is regularly emailing me and if his machine was infected I'm sure my virus checker would have picked it up.

Thanks for the warning though.
