Mark,

University Audi is fine with me. The sales guy I worked with on Tuesday was

Your email contained an attachment called "MyMoney.m.scr"
This attachment was flagged by my Norton Antivirus software as a virus.

Download a trial version of Norton Antivirus, and clean up your PC.

right area of that window.

Virus name is W32.Bugbear at mm

You may not even know that your system is sending out emails to ppl in your

Dont use your email program until you get your problem fixed! Dont spread
the virus!
