Ah, there’s nothing that can reconfirm your email client and computer platform of choice as fast as a replicating virus outbreak. Opening up Claris eMailer this morning, I found 14 copies of this. Apparently another variation of the address book scouring Melissa virus managed to get through our primary corporate virus detection system down in Seattle and wriggled its way up to us. Exchange servers and Outlook clients are the company standard, but since I manage to avoid using Windows and Outlook as much as possible, my boxes are clean. The worse part of this whole escapade was that our techies shut down outbound email for two hours this morning until a software patch had arrived. On a related note, our local public school board is still having trouble solving its own problems.
