Turned out to be a total disaster, ( thanks to kazzaa )My computer is infected with who knows how many viruses, if that's not bad enough, they are sent out in my files that I submit.... I would like to apologize in case any of you downloaded my game and are now having pc problems... At some point I will fix my computer and when I do, I will make it up to you.
I'd like to stress the point of having an up-to-date virus scanner Norton is a good one, and it also contains a DOS feature (in case the virus disables your Windows scanner). Check the help booklet for more information on how to get it going.

Someone keeps sending me viruses to my hotmail. There is alwyas an attachment and it says there is a virus in the attachment. Does anyone get similar stuff from a university e-mail?
I used to run a very popular football site ages ago, along with a mailoing list, as a result i must be in lots of peoples address books, I get virus's sent almost on a daily basis.
NOrton is fantastic, its saved me several times, and on the odd ocasion i have had virus's their web site is a fantastic resource of information.
For some time I had someone (I'm guessing from the communiy) trying to send me a trojan through email. They had "I just made this new game and I'd like you to test it! Thanks." and other variations on that. Symantec picked up the virus every time.

D*** trojans.
I have a question: do virus scanners just pick up existing viruses or do they try to find new viruses by looking at a program's code?
I used to have McAfee anti-virus but now I use Norton.
Just do NOT download AVG, it's a steaming load of crap that likes to say it's fixing things, but really, it just blasts them into nothingness, fix my arse.
I used to use InoculateIT as my Virus Scanner. It worked like a wonder! But about 4 months ago it was discontinued and is no longer updated. So right now I'm pretty much open for viruses until I dish out more cash for new protection.
