i've just had four e-mails with the w32.sobig.F@mm virus in them from hotmail accounts i've never heard of. Norton Antivirus picked them up and sent them straight to quarantine. I'm running Win98. Is it just through e-mail it gets on pc's or can it through cookies etc?? I don'y know much about this stuff. | |

have you tried the same cures for the msblast? Dont suppose anyone on here has a copy of it do they? My uncle has asked me for one cos hes a network security guy and needs it for a demonstration. If i downloaded it would it run on my computer, or would it just be stored there? | |
