bibliogirl's last entry for the full blurb.
I won't be emailing before this is fixed as my laptop seems to be infected.
Thanks for listening.
Update: I ran the fix so hopefully this is sorted.
The Worm might be the W32.Blaster.Worm, according to the Symantec Website. I followed the instructions there and I'm not infected, might be a different virus, though.
I updated AVG but no luck yet so I won't be using my laptop for mail until this is sorted.
