Just got this from Igor.

Funny, I have Norton AV as well, and it has the latest definitions.... what e-mail address did it come from?

Nimda.E is VERY bad news.

Hope eveyone has their virus def's uptodate.

Would that explain why AF's been so slow?

It seems to take forever for it to switch pages.

TO be honest, I really doubt the server is infected with the virus, and I am pretty sure my computer is not either, but until I get more details from xoc, we will not know :)

XOC was here today, but I guess he's not following his thread.

That could have come from the same person who gave me the Sircam virus. But that is probably why AF has been so slow

Igor,

The address was automotiveforums.com.
I deleted the email when I got the message from NAV.

This is very odd.
I posted this on the 13th, and didn't see a response until the 16th.
Is AF running on Windows servers ?
