[CQ-Contest] Virus Attachments from Contesters

[Hal Offutt]

Hi,

For the last month I've been getting 4-5 viruses each day from addresses
like validcall at hotmail.com.  (I assume that the 17.4 kb attachments are
viruses; I don't open them.)  Today I got one that said it was from
a well-known Connecticut contester at arrl.net.  The message title was "re: re:
message."

I assume that whoever is sending this stuff got my address from
contest-related list.  Are others receiving this stuff ?  Who is doing this?
Is there anything we
can do about it?
