Phishing is not virus. Phishing is play tricks on your mind and senses. Finding ways to make you believe things that are not true. To the extent that your environment is known to the phishers they have you at a disadvantage. Note that I said that the phisher attacks you, not the software that you are using. The warning is half in jest. The world is not chock full of evil people, really. -- Paul E Condon [email protected] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
