Hi margaret What i do is go to my service providers site and check for the virus updates and patches that they recommend, and the good thing is they are free. Regards Pat |

Does anyone out there keep getting a box appearing in the top left hand corner of their screens, telling them that they have missed an incoming call? I have been getting these for weeks and it always disconnects me! My hubby reckons that they are a form of spam, any ideas anyone? Maggy, West Yorkshire |

Hi Mel, I had a virus on my computer last year and I didn't know at first. My competuer kept returning mail (that I hadn't sent and to addresses I had never heard of) to me saying it couldn't be delivered etc. This was when I found out I had a virus, luckily for me I have great anti-virus software now which stops the little devils!! So beware if you haven't got anti-virus software'cause that may be the reason that you are getting all those undelivered mail!! Laurie |

I had three or four at work last week, plus the ones that say they are undelivered messages, even though I hadn't sent an e-mail to anyone. Mel |

Only Six? I've received many more than six but I have the Norton Anti Virus programme loaded which has automatically deleted the attachments thank goodness. I contacted Microsoft who took about 10 days to respond and advised me that they never send out patches via e mails. By then I had decided for myself that they were not geniune and decided to block the sender in each case. They now seem to have stopped thank goodness. |

Microsoft DO NOT send patches by email. If you receive one of these delete it without opening any attachment, as that contains a virus or worm. Delete again from your Deleted messages box to get rid of it. Jan. |

In the last five days I have recieved about six emails from "Microsoft" telling me to download a patch, it looks very much like it has been sent by them, but a warning to anyone that recieves one like this it has a virus, so please delete as soon as possible. Has anyone had an email from Microsoft? Sue....... |
