I will do what I can to filter the subject for this one but the virus du jour is not limited in what it uses for a subject name :-( In case anyone on the list is still in the dark ages and not using antivirus software on a microsoft windows system please go out and pay for a decent antivirus program (and update it regularly) This is the first one that's been sent to the mailing list in the latest wave. I'm getting about 60 copies a day at another email address I monitor. It's extremely rampant in China and finally starting to get bad from other parts of the planet. We'll be seeing more empty messages as this virus spreads, I'll notify the offender as they appear. http://www.pandasoftware.com, http://www.symantec.com, http://www.mcafee.com http://www.sophos.com are a few options. Panda software has a free scanner and removal tool for klez - a copy of which started on the email this is a response to. For those using Microsoft Windows don't just run the scanner - cough up some cash and put in a current antivirus program. Hopefully this is the one and only post on this topic. retreating back into the woodwork. kirk paddlewise list herder *************************************************************************** PaddleWise Paddling Mailing List - Any opinions or suggestions expressed here are solely those of the writer(s).
