Another Computer Virus

We have been receiving bounces of lots of virus messages that appear to come from admin@thriftyfun and webmaster@thriftyfun. These are NOT from us and if you receive any messages like this, delete them immediately. These are addresses that we NEVER use.

We tend to get these before most people but this one is coming fast. We are all Macintosh here so generally the viruses do not hurt us.

The emails have a variety of subjects, "Your email was blocked" "FwD: Re:" and "Your Login". If you receive any messages from ANYONE with these subjects, delete them without opening them.

They have .zip files attached. Never open an unknown .zip file and make sure that your mail program does not automatically open them.

If your receive any messages like this and have opened one, make sure to run your virus checker on your machine. Also make sure that your virus software has the most recent updates.

Here's an article about it: http://news.zdnet.co.uk/0,39020330,39197291,00.htm
