| Virus Protection |
New computer viruses are being created daily. A virus checking utility on the Angkornet e-mail server helps to eliminate the vulnerability of all Angkornet recipients of electronic mail to the nasty experience of virus infection. This utility intercepts all email messages (sent to addresses of the form xxxx@angkornet.com.kh and xxxx@ angkornet.com.kh) with attached documents and performs a check for virus infection. If the attachment is infected, the email message is returned to sender. If the attachment is not infected, the message is sent on to the addressee.
Note: This utility checks only the ANGKORNET mail server, not other mail servers or web servers you may use. Other sources that are not checked by this utility are documents that you may download from web sites, files that you may copy from a removable media source such as a floppy disk, etc.
Critical Steps To Protect Your Personal* Computer From Viruses and Worms:

The best course of action is to merely delete these e-mails.
To verify that the warning in question is a hoax, click on one of the following sites which contain valuable up-to-date virus hoax information:
Please do not forward the warning message to 'all your friends', as it may suggest in the text. If you have verified that the message is a hoax, simply delete it.
