I suggest that you all run your virus programs and check for the virus. My virus program was not up to date and I did not find and remove the virus until I updated. I am still restoring my programs.
The virus is: IE46BIN.exe.

Message from Jim Scoutten:
Several Announcements:
Virus Attempts:
In the past week I've been getting messages on my computer from: staff@ShootingUSA.com and admin@ShootingUSA.com
These are phony messages carrying virus attachments. My anti-virus software has killed them dead on arrival, but be warned you will never get a message from or about www.ShootingUSA.com from anyone but me. The sending address will always be: JimScoutten@ShootingUSA.com But apparently there is now enough traffic to the site that the hackers want to try some dirty tricks. Don't get sucked in by their efforts. And do keep your choice of anti-virus software up to date.
One Other Note:
Keep your e-mail address current and keep your anti-spam system authorized to receive messages from JimScoutten@ShootingUSA.com Our list software automatically kills-out addresses that bounce back as undeliverable. If you cancel your hotmail account or switch e-mail accounts you've got to re-register to keep getting e-mail. We can't update the list manually.
Happier News:
We've posted a photo of our contest winner with his S&W 500 Magnum at the site. Ken insists it's his new back up ankle gun.???!!!!!! Check it out on the home page www.ShootingUSA.com
This Week's Show: End Of Trail - the Cowboy Action Shooting event of the year. (And the reason I walked like Duke Wayne for about 6 weeks after we were there.) Details and contact links at the website.
Monday 8/23 7:00 PM Eastern / 4:00 PM Pacific
Tuesday 8/24 2:30 AM Eastern / 11:30 PM Pacific (Monday)
