There is a new email virus going around that I though people might be interested in knowing about.
If you receive an email with the subject heading "Here you have,;0)", a main body "Hi: Check this!" and an attachment "AnnaKournikova.jpg.vbs", delete it immediately. Even if it is from somebody you know.
This virus will infect your hard-drive and send copies of itself to everybody in your address book. My father discovered three of them in his inbox yesterday, but, thankfully, guessed it was a virus, and deleted them.

While I'm on the topic of viruses, there is now a mobile phone virus. If you get a message (possibly SMS) with the title "Unavailable", delete it without opening it. Unfortunately, that's all the info I have on this virus at the moment (apparently it was on the late news last night).

The madboy experience - better than a poke in the eye with a burnt stick (well, sort of ).
