Mike,

>>>It's not so much ignorance, it's that the default settings don't show the extension, and the script comes in as "nakedwife.jpg" even though the real file name is "nakedwife.jpg.vbs". Even if someone knew what a VBS file was, the JPG extension can fool them.

>>Umm.. does you wife know you're sending this file around? *gdrvvf*

>*shhhhh*! :-) That was just the first example that came to mind. Why? Because I've received it on my Microsoft account from someone within the company! Now, what the hell are they doing clicking on something like that at work in the first place? I've always maintained that if I were king of Microsoft, my first edict would be that anyone forwarding a virus would be immediately terminated. Or if I were in a good mood, they'd just be fired.


Well, my solution would be to remove about 4-5 layers of skin from their entire body and throw them in the Great Salt Lake.. Kind of like the tragic slug vacation to the GSL. <g>
Best,
