Please let it be known to the list that I received an email from Chris Jones
today through the LML and it contained the virus that was going around.
Whatever you do DO NOT open any attachment from the LML unless you know for
sure it's safe.  Luckily, I recognized the format of the email and deleted
it without opening it.

[Curtis, the post you received came directly from Chris, and not through
the LML as you suggest.  Since the epidemic we suffered through a few
weeks back I've been very diligent in my screening of all emails coming
into the LML and I'm sure that no infected posts have made it past my
scrutiny.  Please remember, you won't be receiving ANY attachments of
any kind from the LML... if there's an attachment on an email it came
directly from an individual.  As I mentioned previously, all open posting
privileges have been removed and the LML is once again a 100% moderated
venue.  Keep your Norton or McAfee up to date and running at all times,
and don't open anything you're not sure of.  Most of today's viruses
are self-replicating, and most times the person who owns the infected
system isn't even aware of the infection.  Just remember, if you allow
them to, viruses simply show up.  It's the user who infects his system
by activating the virus when he runs the program.

PS... I've suspended Chris's LML subscription until he advises me that
he's disinfected his system.  I will continue this policy with any other
LML subscriber whose system is reported to have the virus as long as this
one hangs around.  I'm afraid it's the best I can do to protect the rest
of us from additional occurrences.]
