I got a message myself that says I posted it to Linux hams.  It has the
subject of AMPR DNS.  I did post a message to Linux hams with this subject,
but it was about DNS.  I received a message from the list with this
attachment in it a day or so ago.  I scanned it for viruses, ran it, and it
showed a fireworks display.  I did not intentionally send it to the list
myself.  If this has happened to anyone else, please let me know so I can
figure out if I have some sort of infection that sends out duplicate emails
with this file attached!?!?! Yikes!

73's
