My boss's computer is infected with W32.Stration@mm and this pesky virus just refuses to get lost with our anti-virus programme. So much time has been spent trying to get rid of it and I am currently using some online virus detection software to try to eliminate it.

Apparently, this virus gets activated when you click to open a new year card greeting which came in an email. My boss had a friend whose name is "X" and this email uses the same name (well, the virus replicates and creates fictitious names) as "X". So, he clicked on the attachment a bit too early without realising that it was an unknown "X".

Now, the virus is trying to get the computer send out emails to everybody else. Bummer!
