Are you sure about that? Check the headers carefully. Perhaps it is somebody on the list who happens to have list members in their address book and the virus is spamming those people directly? If you think one of them did go through the list, I would appreciate it if you could send it to me with the FULL header so I can track what happened. FWIW, I've been receiving more idiot virus mails lately than usual, although I've been getting them constantly for about a year. They come from all over the place. I long ago shut off all mailer features that run scripts, spawn browsers, download stuff automatically, etc. Plus I use Eudora, which seems to have better ability to avoid these problems than outlook, which is the program most of the viruses target anyway. If you do use outlook, make sure you have all the latest security patches. But your best prevention is you. Don't open attachments if you don't know who sent it or what it is. kim ______________________________________________________________________ Kim Flint | Looper's Delight kflint@loopers-delight.com | http://www.loopers-delight.com
