with something that yahoo's scanner identifies as W32.Beagle.AG@mm. McAfee identifies it as a version of the bagle virus.

I got two emails yesterday from a member of the board (that does NOT have my addy in his address book), so someone out there (probably with both of us in their address book) is running unprotected and scattering this worm to the four corners of the earth. Tsk, tsk.

I know that AV's off the shelf can be expensive, but for the price of two months internet access you can protect yourself AND all your friends in your address book. There are also some pretty decent freebies out there from what I've heard, but I haven't used them.

Let's be careful out there!
