What should a novice user do? Running a inexpensive $9.95 isp and win2kp is there anything we should specifically be on the lookout for?
Can it attack OE? Our OE program shut down and will not allow any mail in/out.
Just wondering if it as a local isp thingy or something more ominous?
My pc has trendaway virus zap (I think)loaded but it is old, very old from year 2000 and has no updates.
I have just had my Nephew reinstall w2k from a crash last week...........
Any special bugaboos We need be aware of?
Aside from not opening any attachments?

Consider your pc toast if you have an outdated virus scan.

The best thing you can do is pay for a virus scan like Norton or Mc Affee that will automatically update your virus scan.

These viruses are written daily and you have to be prepared. - Tom
