[thelist] re VIRUS--spam??

I have been receiving the .bat file, something to the effect of AD00000.bat
and it does show as an attachment to the email.

I have downloaded AVG Antivirus free addition to help recognize the virus. I
have not contracted the virus because I DO NOT open any attached files I
haven't asked for.
