Hi Ted,
What's the situation about posting virus alerts on the forum?
Just got wind of a rather nasty one!

Big Al.

Don't bother, none of us will take a blind bit of notice anyway.

Have a look at an anti-virus website first... life www.mcafee.com to establish whether it's a hoax or not...

To be honest, I'd rather not receive second-hand virus alerts on PistonHeads as I already get them direct from Sophos and Norton / Symantec anyway - I subscribe to their emergency virus information bulletins.

I'd humbly suggest that they would serve no purpose on PistonHeads.

Too many hoaxes about - leave it to the professionals. Just install some decent virus protection and let it do its job.
