Hi,

today, I have received two mails containing viruses over the Xalan-users
list. They had the subjects "Error" and "Test" and contained binary
attachments. According to "Heise Verlag", a major German IT news service,
they contain the virus "Novarg/Mydoom". Heise says the virus is supposed to
launch a DoS attack against servers of SCO group.

Link to the article at heise online (in German, sorry):

The mails appear quite authentic, it's not your usual porn stuff. So even
some developers may  be fooled by the virus.

Greetings,

Volker
