This was the Day!! And,  sure enough.

Whoever had the computer infected,  must have had
all files written over by the "V" to shut down his/her
abilty to send out any more e-ail with the big W32 V/
Why?  Because on the 6th day of odd months,  the
V wipes out all files on the infected machine,  replacing
all digits with "0"s".  So,  today,  for the first time in
a few weeks,  none of the screwy e-mails have come
here accusing me of have sent weird messages elsewhere,
etc.  Again,  hooray.

BTW,  Norton/Symantec  has new V definition downloads
even today,  5/6.
