If they were all different that would be something useful :)

I bet there's no more than 6 types there?

Actually, just looked and there are about 30 or so distinct virii. Maybe more different ones than this as I just did a quick count. But of course a lot of the same ones with variations.


Some of them are really old viruses too.

And being someone who does "tech support" for an ISP I find it is just so silly that some of these old viruses are still being propagated. I tell all the customers I deal with to make sure they ARE getting the latest definations from whatever anti-virus software they are using and run that buggar, at minimum, once a week!

It is funny that I am even calling these e-mail attachments viruses. I remember when a TRUE virus got into the boot sector and did real damage to a system.
