McAfee Virus Information
I prefer this site to Symantec. Mary's policy...I open NO attachements! Click on Virus Center and then check Virus Hoaxes.

Paula's Archives
I've picked up some great tips from Paula's computer page! Written for the very beginner to understand!

SilkQuit
Great support Web site to aid smokers in becoming non-smokers. Free software download that gives encouraging statistics. Example: "Michael: One week, two days, 5 hours, 46 minutes and 29 seconds. 203 cigarettes not smoked, saving $30.49. Life saved: 16 hours, 55 minutes." Available for computers and Palm Pilots, etc. The stroke of a key pastes this quote to your e-mail and message board posts, etc.

Symantec Virus Hoaxes
This is a great spot to find out if a virus threat is a reality. From the makers of anti-virus software.

Urban Legends Reference Pages (Snopes.com)
