Dear Mr. Riton: Every answer in a Group mail is reasonable; but they may be irrelevant/relevant to your specific query. Secondly, the first mail about this kopa virus triggered the reactions from bdlug users, and i believe that mail had a funny tone of 'window$ problem' that is appropriate to receive some reaction from a Linux user group. There are thousands of web site in the www that would answer the kopa-problem (as you know virus/antivirus is a big industry and millions of dollars are invested in it).
