I always zip files now before sending them as attachments. That solves all
problems with virus protection.

Subject: Re: Don't open Brent's last email - possible VIRUS
Actually, Brent attached to his message exactly the utility he intended.
Because it was an executable, (newkeys.com), many of your mail
servers stripped out the attachment. It was a case of a "false positive,"
and an extra cautious setting on your mail server.
If you did not get Brent's utility, and are interested in it, email Brent
directly to determine an alternate way to get it from him. His address
is [EMAIL PROTECTED]
