Kris, I know it wasn't really from you. In fact, I got an email from me, and I know I didn't send it. I did locate another member who is infected, and sent him a PM and email. Hopefully he gets it fixed soon.

Unfortunately the problem here was that I was getting emails returned to me that I never sent because someone that was infected had me in their address book. So unless your install of Linux doesn't have email, you are as vulnerable as my XP box for this problem.

BTW, the other person infected has been notified and cleaned their machine. The emails have stopped!!

the other reason must be because you love having to write all your own drivers and updates :mrgreen:

Steve, Linux has great hardware support and it also has the ability to do automatic updates(Red Hat, anyways). I have never had it not detect and install drivers for any hardware I've had.

I tried mandrake, redhat and the other big one and all of them had problems with my scanner printer, soundcard and others stuff, but that was 5 years ago now.. maybe they have progressed.

on another topic what happened to BeOS? I was playing with ver 5 and it was neet.

Steve, 5 years ago you could put linux on a floppy (still could, I suppose) but today it's plug and play, has support for most everything, a decent GUI and it needs a much larger hard drive :razz:

Yup!

Linux is fun and easy.

Just, if you are a gamer, you need to get wine running to play video games as very few games are released for the linux platform. And, sadly, wine sucks...

try out fedora or suse now that redhat is discontinuing support...
