There is *no* such virus as "Good Times" as of today; the virus alert is a
hoax. In addition, *UNLESS* you compile a computer virus containing e-mail
message or expand an attached file that MAY be infected, you *CANNOT*
infect your computer. The mere reading of an e-mail message, or downloading
of a text e-mail message to your computer cannot infect your system.
Please let us concentrate on the "biological" viruses for now.
Thanks for your attention,
Martin
