Joe,

Sorry but I didn't understand what you meant with " Add your own email
address with your name replaced with "Warning!Virus 
Alert"".

Where? Can you explain please?

Tnx
Rick

if all has failed.
Add your own email address with your name replaced with "Warning!Virus 
Alert" or
whatever you choose, this will  warn you of the problem.
