Also beware when deleting the attachment. I thought I had deleted the file
from Eudora's attachment folder and even tho the file was gone from the
folder I appearently had not gotten rid of it but somehow opened the file.
Within seconds ZoneAlarm, my firewall, caught the Kernell32.exe trying to
access the internet. Immediately I disconnected from isp and ran my virus
programme. Machine is now clean.
BTW if you're not running a firewall you should. Without ZA on my machine
I might never have known I was infected untill I ran my virus programme at
the end of the evening.
What gets me is this is the only list of the many that I subscribe to that
passes viruses and spam. Are we rtty folk the target of an evil plot? :-)
