(NO) VIRUS RECEIVED FROM HTTP://WWW.LBWORLD.ORG

From: monkeytoes108 (cruschhaupt@yahoo.com) | Date: 2004-08-01 04:54:41 UTC
What Earthlink caught was not a virus. It was a malformed header
violation. I don't know exactly how to explain what that is other
than to say it was probably caused by a technicality or typo.
Earthink dumps it in the virus category because it doesn't know how
else to handle it. I do know that it definetly NOT a virus NOR
harmful to you or your computer. I recieved the exact same letter
from LBWorld that you did when I joined the site and my virus
protection found nothing wrong with it. My computer has had no
problems at all.

Thanks for the information, but I won't be going back to that site anyway. I find it too confusing and unnecessarily complicated. I also had a problem trying to post a letterbox. Every time I tried to *not* hide the state, it kept hiding it. I just don't like the site. But I appreciate your info. I just don't get here very often or would have said thank you a long time ago. SORRY.
