In each case, our anti-virus software has caught it. Additionally, the list server has successfully stripped virus code 36 times since Dec 2 (you can't get a virus through our list server because it strips all attachments). I don't know who started this epidemic but everyone who's system has sent a virus is at fault. Anyone with a computer connected to the Internet should, without exception, run anti-virus software. Our new policy is: Make sure you have anti-virus software on your computer. Although our list software rejects posts with attachments, we are notified by it of all attachments. If we receive notification that a virus was sent by your system, you will be removed immediately and banned from resubscribing. In other words, if your system sends a virus, you can't resubscribe ---- forever. Yes, this is harsh, but the issue is very serious. What would you do if you received emails with virus attachments 1-5 times per day? If you don't have anti-virus software, do yourself a favor and get it. Then run the update utility every week or two.

Joe O'Neill ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 12 Jan 2001 22:24:46 -0500 From: Ken Payne <kpayne Subject: ADMIN: More... New list policy This email is in response to a question/concern posted on a couple of the mailing lists.... First, if anyone doesn't believe the virus isn't a serious problem, I just received two more email's from list members while writing this that had the previously mentioned virus attached. Second, it takes far too much time to keep a score board of who's been warned and who hasn't. I'm not going to be an absolute tyrant, if the virus is too new for anti-virus software I certainly won't fault the user. If however, the virus is currently covered by anti-virus software they'll be unsubscribed. I understand that not everyone is computer savvy, but anti-virus software is a basic necessity. Since viruses make prime-time news, how can anyone not be aware that they exist? No one gets AIDS on purpose, but anyone having sex out of wed-lock without a condom has no one to blame but themselves if they get infected. Likewise, take precaution with your system and it will not get infected. There's one way users can prevent infection of their system even by new viruses that haven't yet been added to their anti-virus software: Don't open executable attachments (including self-extracting ZIPs), don't open screen saver attachments and don't use Microsoft e-mail software or if you do use it, turn off macros. Also, my family and FTE's employees are entirely dependent on the operation of FTE's 5 computer systems in order to make a living. The list users are not dependant on the operation of our systems in order to earn a paycheck. We, however, are. There's more here at stake than someone not being able to read list mail. Let me put it this way.... if you ran a business and someone wrote you a check that bounced, would you take a check from them again?

SNIP Hey Ken, Whatever updates you get on the current viruses, PLEASE LET ME KNOW! ! I did not realize that there was a virus out there by that name, and unfortunatly I have recieved TWICE! The first time I tried to open it and see who and what it was, just said Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs, that was it. Well, unfortunatly, I learned the hard way, and lost everything on my computer, fortunatly, I had a back up hard drive not connected to the comp, which had most of my important info on it. But I just recieved it again last night, and this time I was smart, not knowing who it was from, I deleted it without opening having the suspicion that it was a virus from the last time my system crashed. So if you have any new info on viruses let me know, I dont really watch the news or read the paper, so most of my info comes by word of mouth. Thanks for the info on Snow white, it confirmed my suspicions.

Looking at the engine, it's obvious that there aren't any wires connected to the senders on the engine. The previous owner ripped a lot of stuff out of the engine compartment. Anyway, I've tried re-establishing a few connections to see if I can get readings on the gauges, but I'm not having much luck. What I need is for someone to describe which wires from which wiring harnesses in the engine compartment connect to the senders. There are 3 or 4 groups of wires going through the firewall, and some of them have cut wires. For instance, one wiring harness comes into the engine compartment above the engine. It's two wires, which separate before the coil. One wire goes to the BATT terminal on the coil, but the other wire is cut. It's pretty close to the temperature sender--could the cut wire be for that sender? There are also some other wires around the manual steering gearbox. I have a hunch one of these goes to the oil pressure sender, but once again, I'm not sure. Perhaps someone with a few minutes could glance into his/her engine compartment and describe what wires go where. Wire colors would also be helpful. Any information would be really great!

New list policy Ken, thanks for making everyone aware of the problem. For those who don't know how bad things are really getting on the internet, I actually got a guy banned (his IP address no longer works outside of his little area) from the internet last week because he refused to clean up his computer. So why do I care if he has viruses ? Because he had some really nice ones that ACTIVELY seek out open machines and infect them. They scan the network for shares that are not password protected, yet allow write access, once they find a machine, they infect it with the same virus and it begins infecting other machines. I was getting "pinged" over 100 times per day with this guy's virus trying to hack into my computer. The devil's writing those viruses are making them smarter and smarter all the time, so keeping up to date on the software is becoming more and more important. Keeping anyone updated with all the new viruses released into the wild every day would be next to impossible, instead I would suggest you find a site that specializes in virus information and stick with it. Here at ISU we use MacAffee from Network Associates Inc. (www.nai.com), but any of the big name ones should work very well. Sorry for the rant, but you can imagine how frustrating it is to sit by and watch while all your friends pick up these insane viruses because of a lack of anti-virus protection or understanding of how these things work.

The wires are so much nicer when they actually lay flat coming off of the cap instead of pointing straight up. I got a Borg-Warner adapter and fitted the Accel cap and rotor to actually distribute the fire to a set of Borg Warner 8mm wires. I was a little worried about the 1 cylinder not lining up between the caps, but they did and were only a couple of degrees off, so while I was setting the timing I also moved it over to ported vaccuum, or what used to be ported, it seemed to add vaccuum even at idle, which I didn't think it was supposed to do, but it worked, it idles great now and runs like a ... well it runs pretty good, that Dakota QuadCab didn't really know what to think, thought he'd fly by me after I let off comin off the line, instead I downshifted and kept up with him :) Anyway after that fun I rolled over a scale here on campus, handy for weighing your truck, not sure if we're supposed to or not, but its right there on the side of the road, you just drive across it ... anyway it checked in right at 5100 lbs with my butt in the seat and 3/4 tank of gas (or so). A bit over the 5000lb's its licensed for. I doubt I'll ever get stopped, but its interesting to note. And the forecast is calling for some great 4wheeling weather, and as I type this it gets darker outside and the wind picks up, could be an interesting night :) Just my $.02 wish 96 Mustang GT 5spd 4.6L 73ish 1/2ton 4x4 6.4L http://www.ford-trucks.com//lc/lc.php?action=do&link=http://www.public.iastate.edu/~wish Ford Truck Enthusiasts http://www.ford-trucks.com ------------------------------ From: huston Date: Sat, 13 Jan 2001 14:18:24 -0500 Subject: Re: [perf-list] ADMIN: More... New list policy The problem with most viruses is that the people infected usually don't know they are infected. Most of the viruses, besides doing whatever damage they are going to do to your computer, is that they also go into the person's email address book and mail themselves to every address without your knowledge. I get a lot of email and I have received Snow White probably 75 times. Also, pretty park and the kak virus all the time. It is interesting that my virus dectector (McAfee) has never caugfht the Snow White virus. And I keep it updated pretty well. Bottom line is that you should never open a .exe file attachment unless you are positive that it is safe. I don't ever open them if I get them in email.

Computer troubles began and had the "techs" stumped. Kim took in her Norton CD, installed it on her comp. which was interconnected to the whole system. Over 800 viruses were found which McAfee missed. Some advantages of Norton: Runs continuously in the background...Usually picks up a virus on the way in to your PC, Free updates for a year (subscription costs about $4.00 a year), Puts a "Scan with Norton AV" in your right-click menu that can be used on any file, Scans your whole system automatically once a week or you can set it any way ya want, and alot of other stuff that I'm to tired to remember right now. Another usefull protection software is Conseal PC Firewall. (http://www.ford-trucks.com//lc/lc.php?action=do&link=http://www.signal9.com) It blocks hackers out of your system (and maybe viruses too). It will block ICQ, but you have the option to "Allow". You'd be surprised how many people/programs are accessing your PC. If any one gets this, I know a website where you can test it.

New I agree that Norton is better than the McAfee, Its easier to use and Norton has been around a while, I have both and since I have never gotten a virus I cant say how well they detect things, but at school we get them all the time and usually the servers catch everything but macro viruses are always slipping past McAfee misses most of them but Norton always catches them. As for personal firewalls I use Zonealarm (get it at www.hotfiles.com ) simply because its free and gets the job done. If I ever get DSL im going to set up my linux box to do all the proxy/firewall/server stuff. By all means the best protection is just to not open .zip or .exe attachments PERIOD even from your friends.

For example set it up to forward them all to a different email address. Does it generate a log file you could just check every once in a while? Since the list server automatically filters attatchments, it seems the only problem here is that they end up going to you. I'm not agreeing with your new policy, nor am I disagreeing with it. I can definately understand the reasoning behind it though. I work in the computer industry and I get to deal with plenty of viruses so I know where you are coming from. My 2 cents is that Norton Antivirus 2001 is the best product out right now. It automatically checks the internet for updates so you are always current. Read about it or buy it here: ....
