Security Incidents: RE: New virus outbreak.

["KoRe MeLtDoWn" <koremeltdown () hotmail com>]

Hi Dave,
If you have some time why  not just make one up on an isolated box (that is, 
that has no internet connection and no lan network connection - it should be 
the only computer within its network). This way your ensuring the best 
results. If undetected virii was what your looking for, thats probibly the 
most effective way to go :)
Kind regards,

Is your box REALLY secure?
