I've been getting several messages a week with virus attachments. Most
"appear" to come from hams, but usually the callsigns used are vacant ones.
So far my Norton has found and quarantined them, but I never got them before
about two months ago. Your messages here make me wonder if you think there a
connection with the towertalk reflector... comments? Solutions? Jerry K3BZ

Yep, I got three copies of it. It wasn't sent from my address though. I
don't know where/who cmgate.com is. That's the address that was on the ones
I got.
My ISP doesn't even let me get them (I want to) anymore. They filter
everything that comes into them. I used to toss them onto a floppy and use
them to test my virus scanner, but now I can't do that. ;o)
