How to rid your computer of the SOBIG.F worm

[- Joy -]

Phyllis asked:
<<I'm getting these e-mails, too, and have not opened them since they
looked virus-y (three of them were addressed by FAQ-ers, btw, but I
knew you didn't send them to me).  Is there any way to stop them
coming into your in-box?>>

The best way I know of is to use Outlook Express.  I've set up a mail filter
that sends all of the virus emails straight to the Deleted Items folder.  If
anyone's interested, here's how you do it:

Tools -> Message Rules -> Mail...
Click the New button on the right.
In the first box, choose Where the subject line contains specific words.
In the second box, choose Delete and choose Mark as read
In the third box, click on the blue underlined Contains specific words.
Type in the following words, and click Add after each one:
Re: Your application, Re: My details, Re: That movie, Re: Wicked
Screensaver, Your details
Click OK.

Hope that helps!
