The Virus was sent to me internally via a HOTMAIL Account. Hotmail usually
scrubs this type of virus, they missed it. We do have anti virus software
with auto update, but since the DAT release date was JUNE 14, 2000 our
weekly update had not upgraded our virus alerts. It was JUNE 19, yesterday,
the Alert level raised from Low to HIGH, again a timing issue. Our virus up
grade will be changed to a daily update instead of weekly update.
My apologizes for the trouble

Hi everyone,
I received this virus today and I know better than to open any attachments,
so I did not launch the virus. But, I'm curios how everyone else handled
this situation. We have our computer guys here that are suppose to monitor
any incoming e-mails with attachments and quarantine anything that is a
virus. Unfortunately, this does not always work, like today. Did your
systems warn you about this virus? If so, did your computer guys know ahead
of time and updated their virus programs? Or, did they just hear through
the grape vine and warned you in advance? Thanks for your input, I
apologize for this not being TechNet related info.
Jim
