hi.

maybe someone can sort this out for me. i just received a virus from
someone who is on thelist. the file was that was removed was called
"shipManifest.txt.scr" and is supposedly of type "W32.Bugbear at mm".

the mail came from "Thomas Granger - TK - Filter". when i clicked reply
i was replyingto the person who sent the email and not thelist which
would have distributed it. in other words i don't think this email was
submitted to thelist[at]lists.evolt.org. but rather it was sent from the
infected users computer to me.

the email address is "java_fella at chesco.com". i tried to send an email
to that address warning that person of the virus (assuming they are
actually the person that is infected) but it bounced. so i'm sending it
to the list in case any of you get the same message.

if you are that person, get your computer scanned.


thanks,
chris.
