Would you like to quickly and easily find out the name of your computer on

Test Your E-mail Defenses Against Viruses 
Unless you've been in a coma for the last year you've heard all abaout the 
rash of viruses spread by e-mail. These viruses are actually simple scripts, 
or programs that can cause terrible damage. If you're smart you've probably 
taken steps to help protect your computer from these scourges. If you haven't 
yet installed some form of protection, we urge you to avail yourself of the 
free and effective utilities available to you. You can find a comprehensive 
listing of the very best of these programs right here at PC911's own Security 
page. 

Once you have your defenses up, wouldn't it be nice to know for certain that 
your protection is working? One way to do this would be to simply e-mail a 
test virus to yourself as an attachment. To do so, download this zip file and 
unzip it to a temporary directory and make note of its location. Launch your 
e-mail client and send yourself an e-mail, but before you send it off click 
the paperclip icon and attach the TestVirus.vbs file. Wait a few minutes and 
you should receive your own e-mail. Try to open the attachment. If your 
defenses are working you should get a warning. 

This script is safe to use in either Win9x or Win2K.

why you Windows 95 users can't have that same functionality. For more 
complete information on how to use this package, read this article carefully, 
however it is provided with a simple ReadMe file which should get you 
started. Please read it and follow the instructions. Once you've read the 
material download this zip file, unzip it and get busy.
