New VIRUS Update

ALL WINDOWS XP USERS!!!! PLEASE READ! If you have another operating system, such as Windows 98 or 2000, let me know and I'll post the fix here for those as well. Ok. Without me having to explain this to everyone in simple terms, let me inform you of something. There has been a very very bad virus that attacks the windows WMF subsystem released in the last two weeks. This is the single biggest virus threat Microsoft has ever seen. Microsoft was going to officially release the patch this upcoming tuesday but have apparently released it early. If you do NOT have Automatic Updates turned on for your computer, you will NOT be prompted to get this. If you do, you should already have the download waiting to install. Either way, if you even THINK you aren't SURE you already have this patch, please please please go get it. If you don't, you're gonna wind up calling me anyway and getting me or someone else to fix this. You can click on the title of the link to get the fix or click here to go straight to microsoft to get the patch. WHY This is Important: Basically what this exploit does is allow your computer to download a virus through simply viewing an infected graphic in internet explorer or whatever browser you have. You can also get it by viewing an infected picture in an email attachment. This is NOT a joke and your spyware and virus programs will NOT catch this. Since it's encrypted in a trusted microsoft file format, these programs are not designed to scan for this type of infection. Now, all that being said.. go get the fix.

Ahhh..

Howdy Everyone

Hey everyone and Happy New Year. I started the move to Greenville. I moved all the furniture yesterday. I'm keeping my house in Rocky Mount until the installers finish building a privacy fence in the backyard of the apt. That could happen this coming week. I plan to live there only a few months while I close on a house over near 14th and Greenville blvd. There is a grad student living there now and they are not ready to sell until it gets closer to her May graduation. Anyway, I'm looking forward to being in Greenville so I can do more "spur of the moment" things with everyone. It's hard to be spontaneous with 3 dogs and living 50 miles away. Also planning a week at the beach in February if anyone is interested in taking a few days away and coming down. Anyway, hope everyone is well and you had a safe and Happy New Year! Love to all, Tom
