Virus warning

[Guest guest]

I have received a virus from a person on these list, and through two

private e-mails. The virus is called BADTRANS and works by searching through

your mail-inbox, and transmit itself to addresses it might find there. One

solution before eliminating it is thus to empty the inbox so that "you"

don't post it to other persons without knowing it.

 

One virus came 21:44 PM from the closed working place of a person in Norway

I tried to phone and ask, just to discover that he was in India!
