There is a virus what it does I am not sure but remember you cant get a virus from Rootsweb mail list because they will not allow attachments. Now what I have found is this I coordinate many mail lists which I see many emails well I have been hit with this virus. It disguises itself as a reply from whomever name it uses then in the Subject part of the email header it reads Tim Casey RE: IL Southern digest #1 okay this is a forged email the person does not know he sent it. At the bottom of the page it will tell you to do the following Take a look to the attachment dont do it . I have these messages come from different Mail Lists one subscriber from Massac Co IL notified me of her problem, IL Shelby Co IL , IL Western . This is not a hoax folks go to your Anti Virus and update. I understand that this is very new. Dont email the Lists you subscribe to you can email me timc@midwest.net and I can tell you more but dont think you recieved an answer from a subscriber answering your question it may be the virus using a persons name. Anything on the list is okay to open but make sure it is on the MAIL LIST not a personal reply. Tim
