> Hi: > Check This! > why should the ant-dev mail list want to read a .VBS script? That is, assuming everyone using windows has bound the .vbs extension to something sensible like notepad. Looks like a fairly encoded VBS worm to me; the encoding scheme may be to workaround virus detection software in email. Whatever, delete it unless you know what you are doing. Alan, 1. in view/file types select notepad.exe as the program to open .VBS, .JS and .WSH files 2. select 'show file extensions' in advanced view settings 3. go into outlook/outlook express and mark the email zone as restricted, then change the settings in that zone for *everything* disabled: activeX, java, javascript, cookies 4. if you use outlook, install the service pack with the security updates. 5. Dont open dubious attachments, whether they come from people you know or not. -Steve
