VIRUS NOTICE DO NOT OPEN...............

an email from us or anyone if the subject line is:

New Graphics site...................its a virus

I'm dealing with it now. the following is partially an excerpt from someone
that sent me the info.
Unfortunately I had already opened one.

This Yahoo worm/virus has caused a lot of grief mostly for YAHOO users.

Once someone has opened the infected YAHOO email, this worm propagates throughout
their email addresses and redistributes the worm under the premise that
the person you know sent it. It's not their fault and unless they clean their
system, this method of infection will repeat itself.

If you have the time, a courtesy email to that person / whoever sent it
advising them that they are infected would be a nice gesture..

SO if you get an email from me with this in the subject line please CALL me
It looks like its a YAHOO groups and YAHOO email issue

Many thanks Victoria
