I'm hoping everyone that works on vbs year round has now switched to the new forum.  I wanted to warn all you about a virus called vbs pub . Last sunday it hit my computer, Apparently it comes in a form of an email with an attachment.  When you click on it it will do nothing.  BUt then on the 6th, 13th 20th or 27th it will wipeout your entire hard drive.  This past sunday was the 6th.  My daughter was up late IMing as she was looking for a picture to go with her lesson sunday when the computer closed down.  She tried to restart but It would do nothing but turnon and go blank.  My friends husband came over and looked it over and took it home--he was even puzzled so him and another friend worked on it and figured out what had happened.  Then he was told about this virus--knowing that I do all the vbs stuff and talk on the forum time to time he warned me.  PLease be careful--I'm very blessed to have a friend who was more then willing to fix my computer free.  And I have it back already!!

Jenn,

Thanks for letting us know.

So when is the virus released? When you open the e-mail or the attachment on the e-mail?

God Bless,

Josh
