Dear Customer 
You may have heard about a new virus called Nimda. We are working hard to
protect the Blueyonder/Telewest service to limit any impact of this worm
[virus] and want to keep you informed of the actions we are taking and what
as a user you should do to protect your systems.

Unfortunately our logs show that you are possibly infected. To limit the
spread and effect to other Telewest customers we will be working with you to
clean your network. Due to the urgency of this situation we will be limiting
customers services that are not updating & cleaning their systems. 

Its main goal is simply to spread over the Internet and Intranet, infecting
as many users as possible and creating so much traffic that networks are
virtually unusable.


Feel free to contact us about this matter.
Regards
Business Leased Line Support
