I heard that this September there's going to be some sort of open race at the BMX track in Woodbridge... I don't have all the details yet, but I think it's geared at getting people into BMX and educating them a little about the sport. My understanding is that you don't have to pay race fees at this event... might even be able to ride a mtn. bike there on this particular day..... More details to come later in the summer. If you're interested, hunt around at the link below, or call Paul, the track director.

Just wanted to "plant the bug" in your ears.

It looks like it tried to go into notepad and create another file. I haven't looked anything up yet but it prolly creates a virus using your own notepad and then launches that.

Thanks. I had no idea (and call me stupid) that one could get a virus from surfing the Web--I thought they really only came through e-mail i.e. opening an infected attachment. Thanks again for the info!

Also, it's weird that I used the words, "plant the bug"!!!! I used that expression 'cause a friend who does BMX was like, "Would you please put a bug in people's ears about this thing in September?"
