Could you possibley ban the IP 80.200.118.4 from all nf newsgroups ? Is
responsible for sending W32.Swen virus on groups and to private email
addresses. See "Check out this critical package which comes from the M$
Corporation" for more details...

This bastard needs to be off the newsgroups and fast.


Thanks for your time, Justin Harding.

Concerning viruses I have received 4 in my mailbox since joining this
newsgroup. Luckily I have software that deletes the viruses.

Yes, it's an unfortunate problem with newsgroups that addresses are farmed
for SPAM. It's a reality today that you absolutely must have an up-to-date
anti-virus program and SPAM filters. If you haven't tried the new Microsoft
AntiSpyware program, you really should download and setup. Also having a
fully-patched platform is a requirement.

If your newsreader program allows for changing your identity, you should
add some SPAM-proofing items to your e-mail address - change your identity
to ***@warp.nfld.removethis.net for example. You might want to change it
every month also.

If you're using an OLD newsreader program, try one of the newer ones,
Mozilla Thunderbird for example is a very good alternative.
