"Virus Alert"

Frank...

Soon after someone had purposely sent around a Klez type .EXE (executable) virus on the Skymaster e-groups, I sent a message out WARNING that if you open the attachment in that message you would launch the virus into your system. You DO NOT want to open it under any circumstance, or any other clever sounding message, making available a tool to defeat a virus... that was the catchline in the message as received here. I immediately deleted the entire message.

BTW, you shouldn't just "DELETE" the message into your delete file and then delete it again from there... you should hit 'SHIFT' and 'DELETE' from your keyboard to PERMANENTLY delete any stuff like this.

Be VERY cautious whenever you see an "EXE" type attachment.
