The attachment contains a virus according to Norton AntiVirus,
so I deleted it without opening. Anyone else got it?

\_ Dude, have you not heard of all the virus news the past two weeks?!
\_ Can't believe someone on the CSUA would even care for all these
spam virii designed for Winblows machines.
\_ The plural of 'virus' is 'viruses'. Free your mind from pseudo
latin rules.
\_ this is english, not latin. viruses infect humans and
other organisms; virii infect computers.
\_ Abusing Latin rules happened to be one of my favorite
past time. another example. virus:virii :: Lexus:Lexii
\_ Except that's not even *correct* Latin. There are
no Latin words that pluralize as "-us" to "-ii".
Yeah, I know, that's what "abusing" means....
\_ wow, the csua is full of geniii.
\_ cool shit. I learn something new (Lexii guy)
\_ Yes, it's the 'admin' virus. Just delete it and you'll be fine. |
