You must have it on your Hard Disk. If you open the attachment, it will spread on your system.

You have to use the "Find" function of Windows 95/98 or the "Search" function of NT/2000 to scan the hard disk for a file with the name GONE.SCR

You only have trouble with this one if you open the attachment. Some viruses/worms will spread without opening the attachment. Fortunately, this is not one of them.

It's not named "gone," and I got it from a German yesterday

Thanks. Actually, I'm pretty sure I don't have the virus, because I have multiple email addresses, and I haven't sent myself any email.
