Three more days, iirc it'll stop then...sigh. BTW I thought of you the other day when I came across this item on AV spam: http://www.attrition.org/security/rant/av-spammers.html Usually we think of spam as advertising, but really when it comes right down to it, why else would an AV company make their software default to autoresponding? As the samples in the article illustrate, the name of the vendor is right there in the email. It's good advertising. And I haven't seen it at all during the current worm attack, but back when SOBIG was first out we actually got some returns that were complete with the virus attached! Now that should drum up the business for the AV's. Best, Jim ___ Flightgear-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.flightgear.org/mailman/listinfo/flightgear-devel
