Michael, This is why you need to block 'arachne-list' at arachne.cz
All 11 copies of the new 'SoBig worm' came from arachne-list. (as did the 3 more that just came a few minutes ago) http://www.access4cheap.com/~glennmcc/images/a-list.gif http://www.access4cheap.com/~glennmcc/images/a-list.txt And this is an even more important reason. IMO, We have just lost one of our best friends as a list member. :(((( On Wed, 20 Aug 2003 3:26:30 +0300, Or Botton wrote: > I have been subscribed to the Arachne mailing list for several years now.. and > its my time to depart. > I still love DOS, I still like Arachne, and I still use it - these are not the > reasons for my leaving. > The reason also has nothing to do with the fact I havent posted here for > awhile..
