I am POSITIVE The "HAHAHAHAAHAHA sender" with his Snow White jokes has selected his targets from e-bay.
And sadly - with the exception of the HAHAHAHA-sender... virtually EVERY OTHER infected file my Norton has quarantined has come from an unsuspecting chipper.
This was not their faults necessarily - but IT IS a reality.

We are in a high exposure circle ~~ exposed and inviting contact with many different people, computers/ software / budgets and level of computer "savvy". What "we don't know" CAN hurt us - and others. When you have a free moment (YEAH RIGHT, EH?? ) BROWSE the Norton and McAfee sites. They try their best to be straightforward and use simple language to appeal to the "less-of-a-computer-nerd" (like me ) user!

I had my crash course in viruses when it was too late! I was infected with the kak.worm and the expense was considerable to save my data, clean my system and implement a better (for me) virus program. I didn't know much about them either - but boy-oh-boy - ain't NOTHING like experience to get ya an REAL education!
