NO VIRUS has come through the ROOTSWEB system! These viruses come through
members address books without the member's knowledge. The only thing to
remember is NEVER OPEN AN ATTACHMENT that you are not expecting, even if it
says it is from someone you know. Write that person first and see if they
actually sent you an email with an attachment! This goes for all
attachments except .txt, .ged and .eml . And always keep your virus checker
updated at least once a week! Am forwarding this on to a member of the
Rootsweb staff so they can explain it better than I can! List members
should not panic and NEVER SEND VIRUS WARNINGS TO A LIST!
