Hi World - I go away for a few days holiday (on the Isle of Arran off the coast of Scotland - utterly blissful) and when I come back, what do I find? Once again the usual Virus Hoax does the rounds. The 'Win a Holiday' virus hoax is the latest in a long list, which includes 'Good Times', 'Deeyenda', 'Join the Crew' and others. Sending multiple copies of the bogus virus warning to lists, plays into the hands of the sad folk who originate these virus warnings in the first place - the Internet effectively gets swamped by junk mail, which means that serious and purposive email can't get through. If you receive notice of a Virus warning, or an Internet Chain letter, or a begging letter, then please, before you consider sending it to the PHYSIO (or any other list) check the US Department Of Energy Computer Incident Advisory Capability WWW pages at: http://ciac.llnl.gov/ciac/CIACHoaxes.html or get in touch with me, and I'll check it out. I'm still wading through my email, so if anyone has contacted me over the past 5 days, I'll get back to you as soon as I can. Cheers!
