Re: Two tools to remove the virus LIFE_STAGES.TXT.SHS

i GOT THIS MESSAGE way to many times... this is totally uncalled for. Now
let's see, the guy sent out a message warning us that the message had a
virus attached to it and said not to open it.... did we really need to
know this? I personally try not to use address books period, to easy for
someone to write a virus or exploit... AND WHY would anyone use OUTLOOK?
