Hello, I've noticed some comments about people receiving blanks posts on
some LEM lists, and (I think) of people receiving virus-laden e-mails from
people whom they know, but who didn't send them. I suggest you check out
this link:

<http://www.wired.com/news/print/0,1294,52055,00.html>

"Once active on a computer, Klez searches for files containing e-mail
addresses. It randomly selects one as the "sender," and then transmits
e-mails with attachments containing the virus to the rest of the collected
addresses."

and

"The virus can launch automatically when users click to preview or read
e-mails bearing Klez on systems that have not been patched for a year-old
vulnerability in Internet Explorer, Outlook and Outlook Express. Klez only
affects PCs running Microsoft's Windows operating system."
