Yes and No. If you have wine installed you can run viruses almost as well as the real thing, so yes, you could be infected. But, no, you aren't infected. Most worms randomize the To: and From: fields from the addresses they find on the computer they infect. So someone you know is infected (maybe someone on this list?) but you probably are not. _______________________________________________ newbies mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://phantom.byu.edu/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/newbies
