Warning Message From Dan Gookin
This was brought to my attention this morning, but by this evening
it's become apparent that this latest virus threat is making too much
progress to be ignored.
The virus is known as w32.Beagle. It arrives on your computer as an
EXE file attachment. As you well know from reading my books and the
newsletter, EXE files are NOT to be opened. Yet many folks (who don't
read my stuff) do so, and the infection spreads.
* If the subject line of the message is "Hi!" and there is an EXE
file attachment, DO NOT OPEN THE ATTACHMENT. Delete the message
instantly.
* If you're using anti-virus software, it should catch this sucker;
most anti-virus programs are geared to warn you about EXE file
attachments anyway. Even so, do consider updating your anti-virus
software with the latest virus definitions to be safe.
* A firewall will NOT stop this virus from infecting your computer.
* Macintosh and Linux computers are not affected.
* Vital links confirming that this is not a hoax and that I'm not
wasting your time:

Is there a way to stop memory leakage in Windows ME?
I pirchased windows ME after purchasing my new computer
with the Windows XP operating system which kept freezing
up programs and I continually received fatal error
messages.
So I insytalled Windows ME and everything was working
fine, for a while, but now I keep getting "close proogram
dialog boxes and low system resources dialog boxes.
I have 256 MB of RAM and only a very few programs loaded,
I have almost no saved files which would require a lot of
memory usage.
I ran a program that detects memory leaks. Low and behold
the program kept coming back that Windows ME has allowed
large amounts of memory leakage.
How can I stop this leakage once and for all. I can not
afford to go out and purchase a new operating system at
this time.

this Microsoft Shared Fax Client (what is it to begin
with?), so that I can uninstall this program so that XP

Card reader assigned to drive D
During the installation of my graphics tablet software,
various *.dll files were identified as missing and I was
prompted to insert the Windows ME disc into the drive.
Doing so did not resolve the prompted of the missing files.
To get around this, I copied the missing dll files from my
notebook to the desktop. Now, whenever I insert a media
card reader into the USB port, it is assigned drive D and
my virtual D, E, and F drives are reassigned to E, F, and
G.
It makes no difference with brand of card reader I use,
the D drive is assigned to the card reader. The 9 in 1
reader that I now am using used to be assigned the last 4
unused letters before since it has 4 slots for the
different types of media. Now its assigned D and the next
unused letter.
Any suggestions on how to resolve this conflict? Device
manager doesn't show the card reader as a device that can
have its drive assignment changed. Tag: WINDOWS PASSWORDS Tag: 227150
Is this a hardware problem?
I have a spare computer (previously my son's) that
appears to have gone onto standby or hibernation - when I
switch on the power all I get is the power button
flashing - I can't hear the fan or anything starting up -
any ideas? What happened was:
I switched it on the alter the settings so that I could
remove the extra graphics card as I wished to sell this
separately since the machine has an onboard graphics
chip. I switched it on and it all loaded, albeit slowly
I couldn't find a ps2 mouse so I used a usb mouse with an
adaptor on but this didn't connect properly so didn't
work when loading windows me so I had to use the
keyboard, when the password box came up I pressed the
enter/return key to cancel this however nothing seemed to
happen so I pressed escape this resulted in the machine
appearing to switch to standby.
Is this a hardware problem or have I inadvertantly put it
into standby or hibernation? (I never use these options
as I can't remember how to turn them off). Any help
would be appreciated.

What's Mr. Bill gonna do for us poor ME user's ?
A few years ago I puchashed an HP Pavilion with factory
installed ME on it. It frequently has problems and seldom
runs smoothly. I have used 95,98 & XP without nearly the
headaches! I've had a couple of computer "buffs" tell
me; "get rid of ME, its junk". I've had IT people I work
with say; ME is bad, dump it and load XP. I've even had my

shut down. Windows will not open and this message
reappears. Safe mode functions occasionally but no fixes
have worked. The system resotore will not work because
there are no back up points nor will the scanreg as no

will reformat successfully but when re-installing
everything it gets caugt up on this driver and shuts down
again. I also get the Kernell32.dll errors among some
others. I deleted the OS from the hard drive and was able
