Just as we have already released Windows XP for Intel Itanium II 64-bit
processors and are also about to release Windows XP for 64-bite Extended
Systems (AMD64), the same will almost certainly be true (use of "almost" as
the product is still in development and all things are subject to change) of
the next major release of the Windows client opertaing system.

Hello.
Could whoever is using my name and my internet address please stop
posting illegal links to websites. I am not exactly sure what is going
on, although I suspect that a spam scam is going on. None of this data
was written by me, and I take no responsibility whatsoever for it.
I suggest you not to open any emials you recieve from me either
because they are possibly virus-infected.
Thanks, Jeremy.

You should never use your real email address in a newsgroup. With that
said, some of the current viruses can spoof your address and make it seem
like you're sending these messages to others. It's someone who you've
corresponded with, who's infected by a virus, that's doing it. The virus
has randomly pulled the your name from their address book and is using it
to spread their mischief.

The bottom line, is that their's not much you can do about it... it's
happened to an awful lot of us. Just keep your virus scanner up to date and
don't open attachments.

It is probably a virus - 'new message in old clothes' - that is sending
itself around from some machine that happens to have you in its address
book. So it is probably no one who is going to be around here. And
might be anyone you know
