Norton anti-virus (updated 5/6/02) didn't detect one of them.  The attachment was named <<<<warn.txt>>>>.  I even scanned it in Windows explorer and Norton said it was clean.  Later in the day, I received a 4th copy of it that Norton did catch on the way in. Following are the four different subject lines in came under: Worm Klez.E immunity Rights Reserved A very new game Tickets It has the ability to put whatever address it wants in the "From" line while the original infected email address is listed as "Sender". I use Eudora Pro. Don't open or preview ANY attachments and update your anti-virus program every few days for a while.
