I just received another posting warning rather frantically of the extreme danger of getting the CD-IT virus off the Internet. It supposedly comes attached to a fake piece of software that claims to make a regular CD drive read/write, and then it does serious damage to one's PC. We've received MANY varied copies of this posting over the past few months. This one says USA Today just published an article about the great danger of this virus. So far I've never heard of anyone who caught it though. I just checked comp.viruses. Not a single mention. Anyone know if this is a new outbreak I should again forward a message to warn our readers about, or if it's an old net-hoax or extremely minor problem that just happened to resurface? Thanks.
