>From the details supplied by Harry Croon, it looks like the infected message originated in Cyprus so any list members from Cyprus should make sure that the anti-virus stuff is up-to-date and that their computers are clean. I think that the bugbear uses one of the security holes that Microsoft plugged up a few months back so it will be necessary for the individual with the unclean computer to make sure that they have all the latest fixes from Microsoft as well.
