I don't normally reply to this sort of email on a list, however Jim I think
you should be aware of two things:
1) The virus is your instruction to pass on the warnig to everybody on your
address list. I am getting at least one such chain virus warning a week
now. It is these (warning) messages which are the real danger to the
Internet and not the probably no-existant virus that they mention. If you
receive a warning such as this, do not pass it on to all you know, tell the
sender not to do it again (as i have here) and all will be well.
2) Please lets not use the Delphi List for non Delphi things. Jesus or any
Jusus related viruses are nothing to do with Delphi
