Tue Jan 03, 2006 at 09:20:38 AM PDT

Although many Kossacks may not consider this to be an appropriate forum for such news, this problem is certain to affect about 80% of us and it is a very serious problem that affected users must deal with right now.

This is obnoxious. And just so you know, before dismissing this, I am not fooled by phony warning. I know to always check  Snopes.com before passing along any new alarming warning. I also know not to open a .zip file, but a lot of people new to computers don't.
