Keith Reitman is right; there is a virus going around...I have received several copies from Jordan Kushner (not Jordan's fault; these things happen...just helping you identify the virus if you get it.)
As far as I know, our list server has blocked all virus-carrying messages - so you don't have to worry about getting the virus from being subscribed to the Minneapolis-Issues list. This is why we request members send plain text and NOT send attachments...so we can screen this sort of thing. As a precaution, DO NOT open any attachments to a list message - or any message for that matter. However, you may get the virus-laden message directly from Jordan, or the other member of the list (who I do not know). Update your virus software, check your email program's home page for the latest Security patches, and if you want to scan your hard drive using a free web-based virus scan, surf to: http://housecall.antivirus.com/housecall/start_pcc.asp (It won't block viruses but will tell you if your computer is infected. The site can clean infected hard drives.)
