Hi,

One major provider, I think AOL has been able to block the virus by other means.

McAfee has released a virus definition, but haven't released it as a completed package, only the temporary fix.

This IS very important for those who are not Mac users.

Thank you Danielle!!!

Hi Darlene,

This is what I was referring to. That's the only thing that hit yesterday. People often exaggerate the affect. I didn't pay any attention to the wording of the article.
