(rant) I was complaining yesterday about getting a little notice scolding me for allegedly sending a virus to somebody I don't know in Finland. The virus in question puts names from the true sender's address book in the "from" field, but apparently the system in question is not set up to check ip addresses.
I ran an extra virus scan last night to be sure, and no, I don't have this virus. I would not expect to as my virus software scans incoming mail. This scan works, as demonstrated by the fact that this morning it warned me that someone emailed me a virus. Come to find out it is AOL, complaining that I sent this virus to [EMAIL PROTECTED], whom I do not know. The truly astounding thing is that *they mailed the virus to me* -- is that supposed to prove something? What if I did not in fact have up to date software? I used to work at AOL so I am well past expecting intelligence from them, but geez, this practice is a threat to the health of the internet. Too bad it doesn't have a WHO.
