I got Worms!
Sophos virus analysis: W32/Nachi-A
Sorry couldn’t help it… the awesome Antivir, just notified me that I was infected with W32/Nachi.worm. Not even a week after installing win2k.
Hadn’t had a virus/worm for ages (fully patched win98/mozilla) so getting a “not-so-bad” virus was a good reminder to patch myself up to date.

Tsk-tsk-tsk… I remember a certain lecture you once gave me re: practicing safe stuff, aherm. That tidbit and the reminder to clean my mouse often have been a tremendous help in my life. Still can’t figure out how to get to that light thingie on my new mouse in order to clean it, though… >:)

You should be proud of me, at least I was using a virus scan, something that I didn’t do when I was using ‘98.
About your optical mouse, just drop it in a bucket of water, that’ll do the trick

Hmmmm, I don’t have a virus scanner. Havn’t had one in about 4 years, not had a worry.
And dude, about those worms…Try garlic!!!!
