As many of us have noticed on other lists, there is a worm being spread through 
Yahoo!Groups.  Because this group does not allow attachments, our risk is 
normally reduced, and as far as I'm aware, we have not even had any of the 
e-mails sent to us.

These infected emails often have the subject line "New Graphic Site" - please 
do not open any e-mails with this subject line!

Another way to reduce these types of problems is to not enable .html e-mails 
(from the Yahoo!Groups page).  The resulting e-mails won't be as "pretty", but 
this prevents security issues such as are happening now.

As always, keep your anti-virus definitions up-to-date.  If you can't afford an 
anti-virus package, consider a free one such as AVG from 
<http://grisoft.com/doc/1>.  There are other free ones that are also highly 
rated.

A description of this issue is at
