Beginner user alert.

Beginner users beware...

If you are using Outlook Express as your default E-mail client you need to open Outlook Express, go to the top of the page and click on view, layout, and uncheck the box on the bottom half of the screen for "show preview pane".

Most viruses come as attachments but if they do not, this is an inadvertant way of opening an e-mail from an unknown source.



Read the thread from The MUL about the new version of W32.Beagle that is going around (or just go to the Symantec Security Response website) and you will understand why.
