nah my friend got his computer infected. he was just doing hw when a alert popped up and it said there was an infection by the blackworm virus. he told me he wasn't using email or anything and no one in his family used email that day either

The same with me...I didn't get it through E-Mail at all.
It was sorta creepy
Download Spybot Search and Destroy and other popular anti-virus applications. They are crucial to keeping a safe, healthy, virus and spyware free computer. Might I add installing a Firewall, XP SP2 has one but it sucks hard..Zonealarm is a good choice for beginners.
My Cousin got the virus, but she didnt get it by e-mail either.

weird. 
lucky, we never got it. kept the computer off the whole time.
That's the instant cure for virus alerts, people! I'm sure you could live without the comp till the virus threat was over, if you put your minds to it.

lol. If you got the one in the announcemnet, you opened a porn email. lol Because that's the method it uses.
If you want to get rid of it. Symantec has a little removal tool that should get rid of it.
And it only actually inflicts damage on your computer on the 3rd of every month. I'll look for the Symantec Removal tool, and post it.

the pop ups are just trying to get you to buy their product.
it said i got it, but not in an email. and nothings wrong with my computer. i think you can only get it through email.
