Dear All, Our list has received about 5 messages this morning and yesterday from people not subscribed to this list that have viruses attached. There is no worry about your getting a virus from our list since we do not allow attachments and they are all stripped from any messages going out. We suspect however that members of this list may have computers that are infected and they are generating messages to our list from the address books of the infected computers. Please everyone get virus protection and never open attachments that you have any questions about. Beware of any emails you receive that have attachments with these extensions: .bat, .cmd, .pif, .exe, .scr, .zip Unless you have requested something and the email is in response to that or you have downloaded something you wanted from the Internet it seems wise never to open any attachment with these extensions just as a precaution. And remove the message and the attachment from your computer without opening it. We have also written code so files with these attachments cannot be uploaded to the wiki. If any of our members have opened an attachment recently with these extensions we suggest you get professional help immediately as it appears this latest virus has a way of allowing a hacker to take over your computer at a later date.
