Hi Folks, With apologies in advance to the folks who have already been told this several times, there appears to be another one of those stupid Visual Basic Script viruses running around. This one seems to be particularly bad as four different lists I belong to, including this one, have been hit by it in just the last few hours. In any event, be extremely careful of any mail you receive with "Jokes," "Jokes text," "Stages," "Life Stages" etc. in the title. If the mail contains an attachment named LIFE_STAGES.TXT.SHS, congratulations, you've gotten a copy of the virus. As long as you don't open the attachment, I believe you're safe (and of course if you read mail on a non-Win32 computer, you're safe too.) Anyway, I thought I'd pass this message along because I've gotten so many infected messages today and not one official announcement about the thing. --------------------------------------------------------- Ernest Friedman-Hill Distributed Systems Research Phone: (925) 294-2154 Sandia National Labs FAX: (925) 294-2234 Org. 8920, MS 9012 [EMAIL PROTECTED] PO Box 969 http://herzberg.ca.sandia.gov Livermore, CA 94550 --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, send the words 'unsubscribe jess-users [EMAIL PROTECTED]' in the BODY of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED], NOT to the list (use your own address!)
