I received a message on my CofC faculty mail list that contains a virus (IRC/Stages.worm). My system caught it and protected me, I believe, but I want to alert anyone who may have received mail from me today. The subject of the message is "funny text". My system replaced the contents of the message but it apparently starts with "the male and female stages of life". If you receive any mail like that, do not open it, even if it claims to be from me.
