Damn, Todd, it got yanked. Was this anything like the text that used to be at http://www.microsoft.com/mac/p...ucts/office/2001/virus_alert.asp as reported by Need To Know:

Q: Will the virus impact my Macintosh if I am using a non-Microsoft e-mail program, such as Eudora?

A: If you are using a Macintosh e-mail program that is not from Microsoft, we recommend checking with that particular company. But most likely other e-mail programs like Eudora are not designed to enable virus replication.

Hate to break it to you, but that's not a Microsoft site. Try getting to it here:

http://www.hwnd.net/pub/mskb/Q209354.asp

They're just mucking with the URL

Yup, Eric's right it was a spoofed url and I didn't notice. Funny as hell just the same...

We will not edit your comments. However, we may delete your comments, or cause them to be hidden behind another link, if we feel they detract from the conversation. Commercial plugs are fine, if they are relevant to the conversation, and if you don't try to pretend to be a consumer. Annoying endorsements will be deleted if you're lucky, if you're not a whole bunch of people smarter and more articulate than you will ridicule you, and we will leave such ridicule in place.
