Please don't open any email attachments that end in .pif or .scr. This is a new virus. See http://news.bbc(.)co.uk/1/hi/technology/3164861.stm Crista

Crista, we got that message at work yesterday from our IT controller. It's scary to think that there are idiots out there who would send these viruses out into the big wide world! Alaina :)

Perhaps if they put their energy into transcribing for FreeBMD all the records could be on in another couple of months!! Shame they feel they need to be so destructive instead.
