Hello! Can You Believe It’s November? WARNING: If you receive an e-mail from someone that contains a link with any part of following -planetkart. prato. it/ to. php - do NOT click on it. Delete the e-mail immediately. If you have already clicked on it, run your anti-virus program without delay. Then be sure to delete the e-mail right away. The link is phony, and if you click on it, you will download a virus that spreads itself by sending itself to every e-mail address it can find on your PC. Anytime you receive an e-mail from someone that contains a single random link and has been forwarded to several people, BEWARE. Send that person a new e-mail asking them if they sent the link to you. This virus seems to be targeting Yahoo and Hotmail users by compromising their email accounts. If you have an email account with either of them, and suspect that your account has been hacked, change your password right away.

Here’s an update - I decided to send the newsletter once monthly. I will send it on the first Friday of every month. Please note: if I feel that you need to be warned about an especially dangerous virus, trojan, worm, or other malware, I will send out a special newsletter with the word WARNING! in the title.
