Cristine,

                 The sobig virus which I think you are encountering, as probably are most of subscribers to this column, was dealt with in a recent issue of your paper The Age  and was said to end on September 10th.but was speculated to be followed by a more virulent  type. It was a sobering article suggesting by the end of last week 1 in 15 international E/M`s was via that virus. Touch wood those affecting me appear to have ceased.Individual malcontents,industrial espionage versus Microsoft possibly and indirectly funded by outraged competitors, together with a growing number of "disaffected "countries will be a force to be reckoned with into the future. China itself is presented as a significant catchment area into that future. Unlikely Czechoslovakia as hinted at as being a present threat.
