Listers One of the wonderful things about being the List mgr is that I occasionally get to violate my own List rules. Please CUT AND PASTE (not attach) and pass this along to everyone that you know. Then do not send or open any attachments for at least 6 weeks. And after six weeks open them only if you have purchased a firewall software.

McAfee.com recommends that you scan your system to check for infection. 1. W32/Badtrans@MM is a mass-mailing worm that spreads via the email program MS Outlook. This worm creates an Outlook object that sends an infected document as a reply to all unread email messages. If the attachment is opened, the worm displays a message box: Title: Install error Message: File data corrupt: probably due to a bad data transmission or bad disk access. Once running, the Trojan attempts to mail the victim's IP Address to the author. When this information is obtained, the author can connect to the infected system via the Internet and steal personal information such as usernames, and passwords. In addition, the Trojan is capable of capturing other vital information such as credit card and bank account numbers.
