Hi..Beware of a new virus called the Dan Quale virus...supposedly it attacks some applications, I dont know which ones yet, but it scrambles letters in words. I other words all the correct letters are in the word but the letters become scrambled messing up your documents or files. This was reported to me by someone who works on networks. I also read it on the net about a week ago. I dont know how its transmitted or what it attacks. Just letting people know to beware.
