[ale] OT: virus count

[Jerry Yu]

	it is probably for people never clued in.
	I know a LAN manager sent out emails instructing people to run the 
detection/purging utilitly for the Blaster, then explicitly asked people 
not to patch their desktop. Only four days later, the whole LAN was 
hosed. Her logic has evaded me big time. Any one?
