Alert!!!

An e-mail computer virus swept across the globe that
automatically opens pornographic websites on the victim's
screen.

Authorities intend to track down the hackers responsible for
the virus just as soon as somebody complains.

Actually the sad thing is, when you install certain free software you often install piggy back software that does exactly this.

spybot search and destroy is a free spyware buster http://security.kolla.de/index.php?l...&page=download
created by a private individual that was disgusted with spyware and the high price of programs to get rid of it. In a comparision with similar programs in a computer mag spybot was the only program to score 4 of 5 stars.

Actually reptilesalonica, it was a joke. Guess it isn't very funny though.

A practice to follow to keep your email safe is to delete everything that shows up from people you do not know. And if you are really paranoid about it a lot of people I have talked to delete things without looking at them even if they know the sender but was not aware of the email coming.

You should also invest in some really good antivirus software if you do not already have it. I personally recommend Nortons or McAfee. You should also update this software at a minimum of once a week.
