The BBC have been in touch with me regarding virus hoaxes. They're looking to interview someone - along with myself - who's acted on a hoax virus warning causing damage/time waste bla bla bla. This is to be broadcast on BBC 2, so anyone looking for that 15 minutes of fame feel free to email me Jclark@nai.com

Still no takers yet? Like I say email if interested. Matt, your Dad sounds ideal.
Michelle/Marko it's Viruses! No such thing as Virii.
Craig, not hearing much from F-Secure in the UK, fancy letting me know current plans

I worked for a company who got a virus and sent it all over the world due to a rather full address book! It took me 2 days to sort it out, which was cool because I was doing consultancy work!
I always check the McAfee website before warning anyone of a virus, or virii because they have a good list of hoaxes.
Hope there's no spelling mistakes here!
I am no expert, but I cleaned it up a treat and tried to encourage the company to get their AV software updated every week, which was like banging my head against a brick wall.
