I received a coupld of emails with the subject labeled "1-NEEDS AND WANTS TONESCALE
TAB"
or "1-NEEDS YOUR HELP" both had attachments of the type ".xls.pif". In the
case of the "NEEDS YOUR HELP" variation, I emailed the original sender asking
him to repackage it in a text file. The results where that the mail was from
a virus.
All I can say is don't open any MS attachments. And keep all communication
on the lists Text only. Anything else should be ignored.
