Gooday all
Be aware there are some in this gardening area who are looking to attack
your computers by giving false links and phishing sites.
They will gain your confidence and take over your computer by various
means.

It pays to stay clear of these persons.

Dont click on any links and make sure your anti spyware and anti virus
programs are up to date.
And last of all, they can impersonate others as well...
They have done so to me lately..


And also there is a new Trojan going around that is attached to a very
poorly written notice about how "you've been doing illegal downloads on
the internet and your ISP is going to disconnect you. See your record
of
illegal activities in the attachment". And my ISP hasn't yet filtered
such
stuff out and I'm not even sure if the lalest download of my security
software can pick it up yet.

You would open and read such a topic/subject?

Oh.. you have. Cos you have.

[shakes head in awe]


Don't be stupid. Of course I haven't opened the attachment. The first
thing I did when I read the illiterate email I received was to go onto the
Web and do a hunt for Trojans. It's new and all warnings I could find on
the Net seem to be dated from 15 September. See if your virus sofware will
pick it up:
