Bad times is less funny than it used to be. Says the guy who got hit by the Nimda worm.
You see, the Nimda worm really _will_ infect you if you so much as click on it. Not "open the attached file", just view it.
Which was the basic thing that Badtimes "couldn't" do.
I know I can fix it --I took an extension cord, cut off the female plug, put on another male plug so I had male plugs on both ends. I will shut off my computer and insert the plugs into a wall outlet. That should fry that virus beyond recognition.
