Hi All,

            This is a message I received from our Network Engineer - this
morning. Since they keep up with this stuff for us - I think its for real!
Normally we get - don't be idiot messages about the virus e-mail going
around.

There is a Virus by the name of Melissa out on the internet. This is what
the text looks like in the infected document.
Important Message From Application.UserName.'' The body of the text reads
``Here is that document you asked for ... don't show anyone else'' and
contains a list of pornographic Web sites.
This message could come from anyone!!!!!  If you see such a messeage delete
it at once!!!
Computer experts warned users to be wary of documents sent from any senders
asking them to open up a file for Microsoft Word. That file, in turn, asks
for a prompt asking users whether they want to initiate a ``macro,'' and
requires users to approve its use. Those checkoffs make it relatively easy
to avoid the problem.
Just say no!!!!!!

you can also protect yourself by going into word and turning macros off.
just go
into tools, options, general and then check the box for macro virus
protection. this should do it.
