Bugbear is an older virus, a year or something like that, so it won't be as widespread as a new virus. OTOH, I received several specimens of Swen last two days. :-) When that one started several months ago, I was getting several hundred infected mails daily. BTW, sorry for not explaining better. Scrap file is a file format, used by Windows for that thing with Clipboard. Virus is the scrap file. BTW, an antivirus program I can recommend is NOD32: www.eset.com Better than Norton. Other things needed to secure your computer against viruses are: a firewall (www.zonelabs.com for ZoneAlarm) and a spyware remover/innoculator, like Spybot Search & Destroy (don't know the link), cause it prevents Trojans and backdoors from settling in your computer.
