This weekend alone I have had over 200 Klez virus infected messages from
this list and others. Please make sure your anti-virus software is updated.
AVG or Norton 2002 will quartine and allow you to delete it without
infecting your system. No GEN.LIST e-mail should contain an attachment
(which is where it resideds). This is a tricky virus sending e-mails from
you with subjects that look real. It had now infected over 10% of the worlds
computers.
If you don't have anti-virus software you don't belong on the internet.
(Sorry that sounded rude...but true!)
