Many of us have been recieving viruses on a fairly regular basis. However, myself and my webmaster began to notice a pattern in the ones we've recieved in the past 6 months. After a lot of tracing email headers, sometimes from infected messages being bounced all around the world in an attempt to hide the originator, we have discovered several perpertrators and they will be dealt with.
However it has also come to our attention that some people are sending viruses using our name (Hillbilly, remember the virus you recieved from me some time ago?) and accordingly we have posted the below statement on www.samananet

September 01/2002 Samana D.R.
For over a year now, we at Samana Net have been receiving viruses that are being maliciously sent. We know some are a deliberate attempt to sabotage our computers and we have traced them back to several competing website operators.
They are being dealt with.
However, it has recently come to our attention that other people have been receiving attached viruses purportedly sent by our website?s business addresses: Comments, Sales, etc., all at Samana Net.

DO NOT open the attachement but SEND US a copy of the message?s HEADER information so that we may trace the origin of the perpertrator. ~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.
We regret that this has happened but in today?s cyberworld many unscrupulous persons exist and it?s become apparent that they will resort to anything including sending viruses, an international form of terrorism, in the pursuit of their warped objectives.
