 The jumpers are set wrong on the card.  I had the exact same problem with
 an aha-1542 and aha-1540 card recently.  The docs on the jumpers that you
 can get on Adaptec's site are kind of cryptic, but the card will work once
 you get the jumpers placed correctly.

 Am I the only one to NOT see this?

Probably not.  It wasn't in the "Content-Type: text/plain" part of the
attachment, just the "text/html" part.

Ah right.  Spotted it.

Which brings us back to a few good rules:

- do NOT post in HTML

- do not configure your mailer to mail lame virus warnings back to lists
  where precedence is set to bulk.

Thanks for reminding me of the text/html.  I looked there before but
failed to spot it.  *sigh*

 Both the original postings look normal in mutt whichever way I use to
 look at them.

Try "|less".  I think it says a lot that you have to make special effort
to even _see_ the virus on FreeBSD, when on Windows it probably gets
executed by default...

Netscape runs it as well. Seeing Netscape start java is a clear sign.
It's probably harmless in this case, but I didn't wait to find that out.
