VoyForums Announcement: Programming and providing support for this service has been a labor of love since 1997. We are one of the few services online who values our users' privacy, and have never sold your information. We have even fought hard to defend your privacy in legal cases; however, we've done it with almost no financial support -- paying out of pocket to continue providing the service. Due to the issues imposed on us by advertisers, we also stopped hosting most ads on the forums many years ago. We hope you appreciate our efforts.

Hard luck, Thomas.

The virus is called W32.Badtrans.B@mm. If you open it, it will send itself to various people in your address book (without you knowing), and then record your keystrokes and send them via email to the hoaxer, who hopes to spot passwords, credit card details etc.

Go to this website to find out more, and how to get rid of it from your computer.

In the meantime, don't open any attachments with a double extension, eg CARD.doc.pif Just delete them.
